CHIEF  OF  ORDNANCE 

HE  PROBLEM  of  Ordnance  in  the  World 
War  was  the  problem  of  mobilization  and  co- 
ordination of  science  and  industry  with  the 
military  establishment.  The  scope  of  our 
effort  was  as  broad  as  American  industry, 
and  it  reached  to  the  foundations  of  scientific 
research  and  knowledge.  Although  the 
Ordnance  Department  did  not  monopolize 
either  field,  it  is  safe  to  say  that  no  other  component  of  the  war 
machine  carried  its  responsibilities  and  effort  as  to  design  and 
invention,  or  production,  into  so  many  channels,  or  projected  them 
upon  so  vast  a  scale. 

Our  undertaking  was,  indeed,  at  once  so  varied  and  so  pro- 
digious that  few  persons  could  possess  the  knowledge  to  pass 
judgment  upon  it  intelligently.  I  remember  upon  one  occasion 
listening  to  the  complaint  of  a  fellow  officer  anent  the  lack  of  sym- 
pathy entertained  by  the  public  for  the  work  of  our  corps.  It  was 
during  the  days  that  the  Browning  gun  was  "on  paper."  Another 
officer  present  picked  up  from  my  desk  a  paper-weight  made  of  a 
seventy-five  millimeter  shrapnel  shell  cross-sectioned.  Turning 
the  smoothly  machined  exterior  of  the  steel  jacketed  shell  toward 
him,  he  said,  "General,  this  is  what  the  public  sees  of  our  product. 
But  this  is  what  that  product  really  is."  Quickly  he  turned  toward 
him  the  cross-section  revealing  the  interior  mechanism  of  the  shell ;

seventy-three  component  parts  made  with  all  the  precision  and 
delicacy  of  a  watch. 

But  not  only  must  we  expect  the  public  to  fail  in  understanding 
of  the  scope  and  difficulty  of  our  work.  Do  we  not  know,  our- 
selves, from  actual  experience  that  extremely  few  officers  of  the 
corps  could  embrace  the  entire  field ;  could  give  of  their  own  knowl- 
edge a  worth  while  opinion  of  how  well  or  how  poorly  we  meas- 
ured up  to  the  whole  job.  Each  man  knew  his  own  specialty ;  knew 
the  progress  of  his  branch,  section,  division,  or  plant,  or  the  few 
items  of  materiel  included  within  his  work.  But  only  an  extremely 
few  could  view  the  entire  field,  from  tanks  and  tractors  through 
field  artillery  and  railway  artillery,  trench  mortars,  pyrotechnics, 
small  arms  and  grenades  to  clinometers,  alidades,  protractors,  steel 
helmets  and  harness.  When  your  problem  is  the  production  of 
200,000  separate  components  in  more  than  5,000  different  plants, 
with  those  parts  or  items  ranging  from  feed  bags  and  star  shells  to 
complete  trains  of  railway  artillery,  the  judge  who  can  competently 
say  what  your  progress  has  been  must  indeed  have  a  profound 
knowledge  of  the  field. 

It  was  my  fortunate  experience  to  view  the  work  of  our  corps 
both  in  France  and  at  home.  For  the  first  ten  months  of  the  war  I 
was  with  the  American  Expeditionary  Force.  For  the  rest  of  the 
time  it  was  my  duty  to  keep  in  constant  review  the  fruits  of  your 
labor  at  home.  Of  such  knowledge  I  say  that  you  did  exceedingly 
well  and  that  I  am  proud  to  have  worked  with  you  in  this  war. 

I  say  this  utterly  without  thought  of  any  personal  responsibility 
for  that  success.  The  tribute  is  not  to  me.  It  is  not  alone  to  the 
Army  Ordnance  Department  of  the  regular  establishment  nor  to 
the  Ordnance  officers  of  the  Temporary  Army.  It  is  to  American  in- 
dustry and  engineering,  to  American  science,  that  the  credit  for  this 
achievement  must  be  given.  It  was  American  industry  and 
science  that  were  on  trial.  The  ninety-seven  officers  of  the  Ord- 
nance Department  of  the  regular  Army  and  the  government 
arsenals    they    administered    could    never    have    dominated    this

work;  have  won  the  success  or  caused  the  failure  of  the  5,000  of- 
ficers from  civilian  life  and  the  5,000  private  industrial  plants  that 
were  incorporated  in  the  organization  for  the  period  of  the  war. 
The  enlistment  of  industry,  equally  with  the  draft  of  man-power, 
was  a  success.  And  for  that  I  thank  you,  the  administrative 
directors  and  the  engineering  advisors  of  American  industry  who 
came  into  the  service  of  the  Ordnance  Department  during  the  war. 

It  is  probable  that  the  Army  Ordnance  Department  exercised 
direction  over  a  greater  physical  power  than  was  ever  concen- 
trated upon  a  single  purpose  in  the  history  of  the  world.  The 
happy  attainment  of  our  objectives  in  the  war  within  nineteen 
months  gave  insufficient  time  for  the  complete  development  of  that 
power.  Proper  strategy  required  the  projection  of  the  Ordnance 
program  upon  a  scale  designed  to  secure  an  ultimate,  overwhelm- 
ing and  continuous  rate  of  production  rather  than  a  lesser  rate  of 
production  at  an  earlier  date.  Obviously  a  housewife  could  buy  an 
oven  and  bake  six  loaves  of  bread  in  less  time  than  a  bakery  could 
be  built  and  provision  made  for  the  needs  of  an  entire  city.  But 
the  rate  of  production  from  the  housewife's  oven  would  never  feed 
the  city.  The  Ordnance  objective  was  a  rate  of  production  ade- 
quate for  an  Army  of  5,000,000  men.  That  program  was  dictated 
to  the  Ordnance  Department  by  the  General  Staff  in  accordance 
with  its  man-power  program.  To  win  that  objective  we  had  to 
allot  time  for  the  building  of  plants  capable  of  such  rate  of  pro- 
duction. We  had  to  obtain  designs  and  even,  where  necessary,  dis- 
card existing  designs,  to  get  manufacturing  methods  on  a  basis 
permitting  of  such  rate  of  production.  We  could  not  sacrifice  pro- 
duction in  1920  to  force  a  quicker  but  lesser  rate  of  production  in 
1918.  We  were  building  to  make  ultimate  victory  absolutely  cer- 
tain and  there  never  was  a  moment  when  the  Ordnance  program 
did  not  guarantee  the  ultimate  defeat  of  Germany. 

Under  such  a  policy  it  was  inevitable  that  the  attainment  of 
victory  within  nineteen  months  would  leave  the  Ordnance  program 
unfinished  in  certain  respects.     However,  within  that  period  we 


[15] 


^e  Story  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


effected  the  complete  mobilization  and  perfected  the  co-ordination 
of  science  and  industry  with  the  war  machine,  we  produced  muni- 
tions of  certain  classes  in  unprecedented  quantities,  we  developed 
and  supplied  materiel  of  such  superior  design  as  to  receive  the 
praise  of  our  allies  and  the  acknowledgment  of  our  foes  and  we 
stood  ready,  during  the  month  the  armistice  was  signed,  to  turn  on 
the  taps  at  full  force  that  had  been  made  ready  to  provide  a  flow  of 
munitions  such  as  no  nation  had  ever  attempted.  The  fact  that  the 
American  munitions  program  alone  was  greater  than  that  which 
Germany  could  attempt  after  thirty  years  of  preparation  for  war  is 
apparently  little  realized  in  this  country.  But  I  have  no  doubt  that 
it  was  realized  in  Germany  and  that  such  realization  substantially 
contributed  to  victory  by  its  reaction  upon  the  minds  of  the  military 
masters  of  the  German  empire. 

I  repeat,  this  achievement  and  this  contribution  to  victory  is 
more  largely  to  be  laid  to  man-power  and  brain-power  mobilized  in 
the  service  of  the  Ordnance  Department  than  to  any  other  single 
source.  Your  reward  for  service  to  country  might  well  be  in  your 
realization  that  your  ability  was  a  part  of  the  composite  mind 
which,  at  the  moment  of  victory  was  bringing  forth  the  strength 
of  thousands  of  industrial  plants  and  the  might  of  millions  of 
American  workmen  and  workwomen,  to  transmit  that  incalculable 
force  three  thousand  miles  oversees  to  Chateau  Thierry  and  St. 
Mihiel.  Nor  could  the  power  of  our  country  have  been  made  effec- 
tive except  as  this  composite  mind  harnessed  science  and  industry 
in  the  service  of  the  war  machine. 

The  design  of  Ordnance  is  a  highly  specialized  science  and  its 
production  a  highly  specialized  industry.  As  a  science  it  possesses 
a  history  of  research  and  experimentation  that  reaches  back  hun- 
dreds of  years  beyond  the  earliest  dates  recorded  in  other  fields  of 
scientific  knowledge  applied  in  modern  industry.  The  mastery  of 
Ordnance  design  requires  a  command  of  that  mass  of  scientific 
fact.  It  requires  the  devotion  of  a  life-time  of  study  and  research 
to  the  science  and  it  is  utterly  impossible  to  improvise  a  master  in 


[16] 


^e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Ordnance  design,  no  matter  how  well  equipped  with  general  scien- 
tific or  engineering  knowledge  your  candidate  may  be.  In  the 
United  States  knowledge  of  the  science  of  Ordnance  was  confined 
to  a  very  few  men,  hardly  more  than  a  score  were  available  for  the 
design  of  Ordnance  who  could  qualify  as  experts  in  the  broad  field 
it  was  necessary  to  cover. 

The  art  and  industry  of  Ordnance  production  was  equally 
restricted  in  the  United  States  before  its  entrance  into  the  war. 
The  production  of  Ordnance  materiel,  with  the  exception  of  small 
arms,  was  practically  limited  to  the  six  government  arsenals 
and  two  private  plants.  How  restricted  a  field  of  production  this 
was  is  shown  by  the  fact  that  at  the  time  of  the  signing  of  the 
armistice  there  were  5,000  plants  throughout  the  United  States 
working  on  direct  contracts  for  the  production  of  Ordnance  mate- 
riel. The  restriction  was  the  greater  also  because  conditions  and 
methods  in  the  government  arsenals  differed  so  greatly  from  those 
obtaining  with  private  enterprise. 

The  problem  of  the  Ordnance  Department  was  to  nationalize 
this  specialized  science  and  industry,  to  apply  it  in  a  field  where  it 
could  absorb  and  employ  the  knowledge  and  talent  of  scientists, 
engineers  and  industrial  experts  from  all  sections  of  the  country 
and  from  many  different  channels  of  industry.  That  was  the  first 
and  most  difficult  step.  That  accomplished  and  the  directing  organ- 
ization established,  it  was  possible  to  concentrate  the  incalculable 
power  of  industrial  America  upon  the  production  of  munitions  for 
the  winning  of  the  war. 

How  was  this  accomplished?  By  the  devotion  to  duty  of  the 
six  thousand  commissioned  officers  who  served  during  the  war  in 
the  Ordnance  Department.  As  I  have  said  it  is  impossible  to 
improvise  an  Ordnance  expert.  Engineers  who  had  won  fame 
and  success  in  private  enterprise  and  were  masters  in  their 
field  came  into  the  Ordnance  Department,  frequently  with  a  rank 
far  below  their  deserts,  and  willingly  confined  their  effort  to  some 
task  proportionate  to  but  a  fraction  of  the  problem  they  had  mas- 


[17] 


W?  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


tered  in  their  own  field.  Without  hope  of  proper  reward  they 
labored  to  make  whatever  contribution  they  could  to  their 
country's  cause.  Thus  we  secured  our  improvised  "experts"  in  Ord- 
nance design,  by  squeezing  within  a  narrow  compass  in  the  field 
of  our  specialty  the  broad  and  commanding  knowledge  of  these 
scientists  and  engineers  from  other  fields. 

From  the  industrial  field  we  received  a  generous  contribution  of 
the  best  ability  of  the  country.  Men  came  to  unfamiliar  tasks,  to 
buy  and  procure  unfamiliar  materials  in  markets  where  no  supply 
existed.  Without  a  lamp  or  a  ring  they  had  to  produce  Aladdin's 
genii  to  bring  forth  these  hundred  thousand  separate  items  of  fight- 
ing materiel.  They  had  to  provide  plants,  to  teach  methods  which 
they,  themselves,  often  had  to  learn  anew.  The  personnel  had  to 
be  improvised  to  care  for  the  inspection  of  this  prodigious  volume 
of  varied  material,  to  prove  it  with  firing  tests  at  Aberdeen  and 
elsewhere,  to  develop  it  from  the  first  model  through  to  the  point 
of  successful  quantity  production.  The  intricate  problem  of 
supply  to  armies  in  the  field  had  to  be  worked  out,  largely  by  a 
personnel  new  to  the  task. 

When  I  survey  the  extent  of  that  labor  you  performed  in  your 
country's  interest,  I  deplore  the  inadequacy  of  any  tribute  it  is 
within  my  power  to  pay  your  service. 

This  volume  is  a  souvenir  of  your  service,  a  remembrance  of 
the  past,  yet  in  writing  the  foreword  of  it  I  want  also  to  speak  of 
the  future.  Your  labor  was  no  less  for  the  security  of  your  country 
in  the  emergency  now  passing  than  for  its  safety  in  the  future.  For 
if  we  happily  have  ended  wars  by  the  winning  of  this  one,  your  con- 
tribution to  that  victory  has  given  your  country  security;  and,  if 
war  hereafter  should  prove  unavoidable  for  our  country,  then  the 
lesson  you  have  learned,  the  knowledge  you  have  acquired  in  your 
labor,  should  safeguard  the  nation  against  the  danger  of  ever  again 
entering  upon  a  great  war  without  knowing  how  to  shift  indus- 
trial power  quickly  to  war  channels.  With  the  ability  to  effect  that 
transition  quickly,  with  adequate  provision  for  it  made  in  advance 


[18] 


*®e  Story~  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


of  the  emergency,  I  should  never  fear  for  the  safety  of  our  country. 
But  lack  of  preparedness  in  that  respect  will  ever  be  our  country's 
greatest  weakness  and  gravest  danger  so  long  as  the  possibility  of 
war  exists.  Avoidance  of  that  danger  lies  largely  in  the  possibility 
of  continuing  a  proper  contact  between  that  branch  of  the  military 
establishment  charged  with  the  provision  of  munitions  and  the 
industrial  world.  If  that  contact  is  to  be  maintained  it  must  be 
largely  through  your  interest. 

Therefore,  I  ask  you,  when  you  return  to  civil  life,  strive  to 
retain  a  consciousness  of  this  problem  we  have  faced  together  dur- 
ing the  war.  You  have  come  to  realize  that  as  scientists,  engineers, 
directing  forces  in  the  field  of  industry,  yours  is  the  command  of 
a  source  of  power  that  is  vital  to  your  country  in  time  of  war. 
Stand  ready  to  return  to  your  posts  and  so  keep  fresh  your  interest 
in  the  military  establishment,  especially  as  regards  its  contact  with 
industry,  that  you  will  always  be  an  influence  to  keep  your  country 
prepared  for  the  transition  whenever  it  becomes  necessary.

The  Story  of  Ordnance 


HEN  JAMES  WATT,  pondering  upon  the 
power  that  lifted  the  lid  from  his  mother's 
tea  kettle,  first  formulated  those  principles 
which  today  underlie  the  construction  of 
steam  engines,  the  science  of  Ordnance  was 

hoary  with  age.  Its  roots  ramble  back  to 
the  days  of  catapults,  bows  and  arbalests. 
The  wisdom  of  ancient  China  advanced  it 
♦to  a  stage  we  can  only  conjecture,  for  it 
antedates  authentic  historical  record.  When  was  the  birth  of  the 
science  of  Ordnance  is  lost  to  the  knowledge  of  man. 

Ordnance  has  remained  an  isolated  science  throughout  the  ages. 
Its  child,  ballistics,  the  science  of  the  motion  of  projectiles,  has 
little  if  anything  in  common  with  the  sciences  applied  in  modern 
industry.  The  calculation  of  stresses  with  artillery  and  the  for- 
mulae of  explosives  and  propellants  bear  little  kinship  to  knowl- 
edge in  other  branches  of  physics  and  chemistry.  In  its  industrial 
processes  Ordnance  travels  far  from  the  beaten  path.  For  example, 
since  steel  is  used  in  the  manufacture  of  cannon,  as  it  is  in  bridges 
and  skyscrapers,  and  the  United  States  is  a  great  producer  of  steel, 
it  was  expected  by  many,  that  it  would  during  the  war,  become  a 
great  producer  of  cannon  with  little  difficulty.  But  the  steel  of 
cannon  is  subject  to  pressures  incomparably  greater  than  those 
encountered  in  the  ordinary  uses  of  steel.  So  to  forge  cannon  steel 
the   vast   equipment  of  industry  must  be  put  aside  and  a  special 


[21] 


Ws  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


press  provided  that  does  not  hammer,  but,  with  vastly  greater 
pressure  squeezes  and  anneals  the  huge  ingots.  Special  processes 
are  employed  for  the  cooling  and  tempering  of  the  steel.  The 
cannon  is  built  up,  tube  upon  tube.  One  steel  jacket  is  shrunk 
upon  another.  It  is  wire  wound  so  tightly  that  its  normal  state 
is  abnormal  contraction.  Thus  is  the  steel  made  to  withstand 
extreme  pressures.  But  the  beaten  path  of  industrial  process  is 
left  almost  at  the  outset  in  this  strange  manner  of  fitting  steel  for 
use  in  cannon.  The  standard  tools  and  equipment  of  industry  are 
almost  useless  here.  The  task  is  unlike  any  taught  by  the  industry 
of  peace. 

When  resort  to  force  is  made  the  reliance  of  national  existence, 
the  science  of  Ordnance  is  a  priceless  jewel.  But  it  is  without  value 
save  to  wage  war.  The  proficiency  of  any  nation  in  this  strange 
science  therefore  is  proportionate  to  its  devotion  to  the  art  of  war. 
To  become  experts  in  Ordnance  men  must  give  their  lives  to  master- 
ing the  principles  of  a  science  uncovered  by  thousands  of  years  of 
experimentation  and  when  mastered  they  can  find  no  other  use 
for  this  knowledge  than  in  the  service  of  their  country  for  the  sole 
purpose  of  making  war,  except  in  the  very  limited  field  of  muni- 
tions production  for  commercial  purposes.  The  most  superficial 
consideration  of  the  history  of  the  United  States  since  the  days 
of  the  War  of  the  Rebellion  must  convince  one  that  its  political 
atmosphere  offered  little  to  encourage  development  in  the  science 
of  Ordnance  or  the  dissemination  of  knowledge  anent  Ordnance  to 
any  considerable  number  of  American  citizens.  The  fact  is.  not  a 
handful  of  them  were  instructed  in  it.  Practically  nothing  what- 
ever was  done  to  so  connect  Ordnance  with  the  industries  of  peace 
that  the  national  industrial  strength  could  be  absorbed  for  the 
production  of  ordnance  materiel  in  time  of  war. 

On  April  1st,  1917,  fifteen  Ordnance  officers  sat  at  desks  in  four 
rooms  of  the  War  Department.  Outside  of  Washington  were 
eighty-two  other  Ordnance  officers,  for  the  most  part  divided 


[22] 


We  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


among  the  eleven  government  arsenals  that  produced  all  the  muni- 
tions for  the  United  States  Army.  This  staff  of  men  possessed 
practically  all  the  knowledge  of  the  science  of  Ordnance  that  was 
at  the  command  of  the  War  Department.  They  were  not  the  heads 
of  the  organization.    They  were  the  whole  organization. 

On  April  7th,  1917,  Congress  declared  war  against  the  Imperial 
German  Government.  This  staff  of  ninety-seven  officers  running 
the  eleven  Government  arsenals,  became  an  organization  of  5,800 
commissioned  officers  directing  the  production  of  munitions  in 
5,000  main  plants  on  a  scale  that  called  for  the  completion  within 
two  years  and  three  months,  of  an  Ordnance  program  involving 
the  expenditure  of  thirteen  billions  of  dollars  or  one  half  the 
amount  spent  by  the  United  States  Government  for  every  purpose 
whatsoever  from  the  date  of  its  foundation  until  April  6th,  1917, 
including  the  total  costs  of  the  Revolution,  the  War  of  1812,  the 
War  of  the  Rebellion,  the  Spanish  War  and  all  others.  And  all 
this  within  the  high-walled  science  that  scarce  rubbed  elbows  with 
the  industrial  world.  Had  ninety  percent  of  this  organization  been 
called  upon  to  master  the  Chinese  language  in  the  nineteen  months 
we  were  at  war  with  Germany,  the  task  would  have  been  easier 
than  the  one  set  them. 

Let  us  consider  what  was  their  specific  responsibility,  that  is  to 
say  the  materiel  they  were  to  design,  produce  and  distribute.  An 
appreciation  of  this  cannot  be  better  given  the  laymen  than  in  the 
words  of  John  H.  VanDeventer  who  wrote  in  Colliers'  Weekly: 

"What  is  Ordnance  ?  A  storming  battalion  was  going  over  the 
top.  The  men  had  steel  helmets,  hand  grenades,  bayonets  and 
service  rifles.  Their  rifle  cartridges  were  held  in  clips  and  carried 
in  ammunition  belts.  The  officers,  automatic  pistols  in  hand  went 
forward  fearlessly.  Phosphorous  grenades  were  being  thrown  into 
suspected  dugouts,  forcing  their  choking  occupants,  hands  up,  into 
the  open.  Some  of  the  boys  were  'digging  in'  with  intrenching  tools 
A  trench  periscope  was  stuck  in  the  side  of  a  shell  crater,  enabling 
its'  occupants  safely  to  observe  the  movements  of  the  enemy.  All 
of  these  implements  were  furnished  by  Ordnance.

"Machine  guns  searched  out  the  enemy,  firing  nickle- jacketed 
bullets  at  the  rate  of  600  a  minute.  Each  gun,  light  enough  to  be 
carried  by  one  man,  developed  more  power  than  a  racing  auto- 
mobile. Up  came  the  ammunition  boxes  containing  the  cartridge 
belts.  One  battery  of  machine  guns  was  carrying  on  'indirect  fire/ 
By  means  of  panoramic  sights,  clinometers,  transits,  angle-of -sight 
instruments,  alidades,  squares,  protractors  and  special  rulers  the 
gunners  aimed  these  weapons  at  their  unseen  target.  Back  of  the 
machine-gun  operators  were  the  carts  and  voiturettes,  ready  to  re- 
ceive the  guns,  tripods  water  boxes  and  empty  ammunition  boxes 
and  hurry  them  away  to  another  location.  All  of  this  material 
came  from  Ordnance. 

"Miniature  cannon,  the  37  millimeter  'machine  gun  extermina- 
tors' were  wheeled  into  position  where  their  one  pound  projectiles, 
resembling  overgrown  rifle  cartridges,  destroyed  the  enemy's  ma- 
chine-gun nests.  These  guns,  their  ammunition,  and  their  auxilliary 
equipment,  the  whole  involving  over  2,500  separate  components, 
were  from  Ordnance. 

"A  barrage  was  being  thrown  from  our  light  field  guns  of  75 
millimeter  calibre.  Tons  of  shell  were  required  for  this  barrage 
and  every  fifteen  pounds,  representing  a  single  round,  was  a  com- 
plicated mechanism  provided  by  Ordnance,  comprising  seventy- 
three  separate  and  distinct  component  parts  and  embodying  the 
highest  developments  of  science  and  skill.  Back  of  these  light 
field  guns  were  the  miscellaneous  vehicles;  tractors,  ammunition 
wagons,  caissons,  limbers,  supply  trucks — 264  of  them  to  the  artil- 
lery regiment.  All  of  them  were  from  Ordnance,  as  were  the  feed 
bags,  horse  covers,  bridle  sets,  brushes,  saddletrees,  straps,  harness 
sets,  etc.,  that  outfitted  such  horses  as  were  used. 

"Out  of  the  smoke  lumbered  the  tanks — crawling  forts,  built 
and  armed  by  Ordnance.  Overhead  our  fighting  planes  started 
out.  The  machine  guns  that  armed  them,  the  mounts  on  which 
these  guns  were  placed,  the  synchronizing  mechanism  that  enabled 
them  to  shoot  through  the  propellor  path  without  hitting  a  blade,

the  electric  warmer  that  kept  the  oil  in  the  guns  from  freezing,  the 
counting  device  that  told  how  many  shots  were  left  in  the  belt,  the 
special  incendiary  armor-piercing  bullets  and  their  special  dis- 
integrating cartridge  belts — all  of  them  came  from  Ordnance. 

"Infantrymen  were  throwing  rifle  grenades.  Fitted  to  the 
muzzles  of  their  rifles  were  miniature  mortars  which  held  the  gre- 
nades so  accurately  that  the  rifle  bullet  which  passed  through  the 
central  hole  in  the  grenade  and  which  ignited  its  primer  continued 
onward  with  hardly  lessened  velocity  toward  the  enemy,  followed 
by  the  grenade  itself.  A  battery  of  trench  mortars  were  hurling 
somersaulting  shells  filled  with  deadly  TNT,  each  fitted  with  a 
fuse  that  would  detonate  by  impact  no  matter  in  what  position  it 
struck.  Flying  overhead  were  the  heavier  trench  mortar  bombs, 
each  of  them  carrying  ninety  pounds  of  high  explosive.  Little  and 
big,  these  bombs  and  the  mortars  that  projected  them  came  from 
Ordnance.  Batteries  of  155-millimeters  (6  inch)  howitzers,  out- 
ranging the  enemy's  light  field  guns  were  pouring  forth  their  fire 
of  destruction.  Some  of  them  mounted  directly  upon  motorized 
Ordnance  tractors,  and  climbed  in  and  out  of  seemingly  impossible 
ditches,  stopped,  fired  their  shot  and  again  proceeded.  Portable 
machine  shops,  compressed  into  the  space  of  motor  truck  chassis, 
sped  here  and  there  to  render  first  aid  to  damaged  guns.  Ammuni- 
tion trucks,  supply  trucks,  spare  parts  trucks,  observation  trucks, 
motorized,  and  caissons  and  limbers  of  all  sizes  were  either  parked 
in  service  on  their  batteries  or  were  moving  into  position.  Eight- 
inch  howitzers  on  wheels  raised  their  ugly  snouts  toward  heaven 
that  they  might  send  their  selected  targets  to  hell.  Fifteen-  and 
twenty-ton  tractors  pulled  these  heavy  monsters  about  with  ease 
over  fields  and  ditches.    All  these  things  belong  to  Ordnance. 

"Overhead  the  throb  of  an  enemy's  plane  brought  our  antiair- 
craft service  into  play.  Complicated  instruments,  products  of 
Ordnance,  were  sighted  upon  the  plane,  determining  its  altitude, 
speed  and  direction  and  taking  into  account  the  windage  and  the 
trajectory  of  the  shell,  predicting  its  position  at  the  moment  of  fire.

Up  went  a  salvo  of  antiaircraft  shell,  each  one  fitted  with  a  special 
fuse  so  delicate  in  action  that  contact  with  the  thin  fabric  of  the 
airplane  wing  was  sufficient  to  explode  it,  and  yet  so  designed  that 
accidental  dropping  upon  the  ground,  in  handling,  would  not  cause 
detonation. 

"Still  farther  back  were  the  monster  railway  mounts  from 
eight-inch  to  sixteen-inch  caliber.  Each  battery  of  these  mobile 
monsters  was  accompanied  by  its  quota  of  ammunition  cars,  spare 
parts  cars  and  railway  machine  shops,  all  furnished  and  designed 
by  Ordnance.  Night  came  and  bombing  planes  started  out,  each 
fitted  with  a  release  mechanism  that  held  fused  and  loaded  bombs — 
a  dozen  or  more  of  them — and  which  dropped  them  .one,  two  at  a 
time,  three  at  once  or  all  together,  as  desired.  Each  plane  had  its 
bomb  sight,  an  instrument  which  told  the  bomber  when  to  release 
his  ^gg'  so  that  it  might  find  its  desired  mark  a  mile  or  more  be- 
low. Release  mechanism,  bomb  sight  and  bombs,  all  came  from 
Ordnance. 

"Signal  lights  and  rockets  displayed  red,  white  or  green  signals 
or  'caterpillar'  combinations.  Powerful  illuminants  suspended  from 
parachutes  made  No  Man's  Land  as  bright  as  day.  Signal  stars 
shot  from  signal  pistols  told  the  positions  of  patrols.  Back  from 
their  successful  mission  came  the  bombing  planes,  flares  fastened 
to  their  wing-tips,  lighting  the  landing  field.  All  of  these  varied 
pyrotechnical  displays  were  the  products  of  Ordnance." 

Yet  this  statement  but  lists  the  products  of  Ordnance.  It  tells 
nothing  of  the  story  beneath,  which  is  the  work  of  Ordnance. 
To  continue  the  story :  Artillery  provision  is  required  for  an  Army 
of  5,000,000  men.  In  thirteen  years  the  government  arsenals  have 
produced  precisely  as  many  guns  of  one  caliber  called  for  in  the 
program  as  must  now  be  produced  each  month.  Or  again,  with 
other  calibers,  not  a  single  gun  has  ever  been  produced  in  the 
United  States.    There  is  not  even  a  design,  a  gun  on  paper. 

We  must  borrow  plans  from  our  friends  the  French.  But 
their  measurements  are  different.      Their  drawings  must  all  be 


[26] 


We  Story"  sf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


changed  to  conform  with  standardized  American  shop  practice. 
We  have  no  plant  where  this  gun  can  be  built,  nor  even  an 
operating  personnel  to  undertake  the  task  of  building  and  run- 
ning such  a  plant.  Negotiations  are  opened  with  a  group  of  men 
successful  in  the  manufacture  of  automobiles.  The  facilities  of 
their  plants  are  fully  absorbed  with  the  production  of  war  materials 
of  other  sorts.  But  they  agree  to  build  a  plant  for  the  manufacture 
of  one  part,  roughly  one-third,  of  the  particular  gun  in  question, 
if  Ordnance  will  finance  them  and  aid  them  with  raw  materials  and 
labor.  On  a  bare  tract  of  land  work  is  begun.  In  three  months' 
time  the  plant,  covering  thirteen  acres  of  ground  is  completed. 
Next  six  millions  of  dollars  worth  of  machine  tools,  specially  de- 
signed and  built  for  this  work,  are  installed.  Shop  men  turn  their 
hands  to  the  making  of  a  mechanism  of  French  design  such  as 
was  never  produced  by  American  mechanics  before.  In  one  pro- 
cess two  borings  are  made  in  a  steel  tube,  seven  feet  in  length  and 
these  must  run  parallel  for  the  whole  length  without  a  deviation 
of  more  than  one  two-thousandths  of  an  inch.  Beset  with  shortages 
in  labor  and  raw  materials,  this  force  of  men  must  learn  this  un- 
familiar task  and  perfect  their  shop  practices  until  they  can  turn  out 
this  intricate  mechanism  as  though  they  were  Ford  automobiles. 
When  this  has  been  accomplished,  one-third  of  one  of  the  guns  of 
the  artillery  program  has  been  provided.  Multiply  this  task  by  the 
provision  of  sixteen  plants  for  the  making  of  cannon  and  by  twenty- 
six  plants  for  the  making  of  gun  carriages,  on  which  the  cannon 
rest ;  design,  buy,  build  and  install  machine  tools  in  these  plants  at 
a  cost  of  nearly  $100,000,000;  find  labor  for  them  and  raw  ma- 
terials for  them  in  a  chaotic  war  market ;  inspect  and  proof -fire  their 
product,  and  you  will  begin  to  have  some  idea  of  the  significance  of 
the  statements  of  Mr.  Van  Deventer  when  he  captures  your  im- 
agination with  the  word  picture  of  a  gun  raising  its  snout  toward 
heaven  on  the  battlefields  of  France. 

Yet  even  in  making  this  statement  we  encounter  one  of  the  dif- 
ficulties ever  present  when  one  attempts  to  convey  an  idea  of  the

Ordnance  program.  The  vast  engineering  and  industrial  problem 
we  have  just  sketched  represents  only  one  part  of  the  work,  namely 
the  provision  of  artillery.  This  same  process,  to  a  greater  or  less 
degree,  had  to  be  fought  through  with  in  the  case  of  small  arms, 
machine  guns,  tractors;  tanks  and  trench  warfare  weapons  of  a 
hundred  different  sorts,  not  to  mention  the  supplementary  material 
of  sights,  range-finding  instruments,  pyrotechnics  and  such  in- 
cidental items  as  sawed-off  shotguns  that  Yankee  ingenuity  was 
inclined  to  add  to  this  bewildering  assortment  of  Kultur  cures. 

At  the  outset,  upon  the  declaration  of  war,  the  ready  resources 
of  the  United  States  for  the  manufacture  of  Ordnance  were  loaded 
down  with  orders.  There  was  only  one  delay.  These  orders  had 
to  be  placed  in  accordance  with  the  system  in  vogue  with  our 
republican  form  of  Government.  The  year  before  the  war,  Con- 
gress had  embarked  upon  a  military  program  contemplating  the 
yearly  increase  of  the  armed  forces  of  the  country  by  250,000  men 
until  a  strength  of  1,000,000  men  was  reached.  The  Ordnance 
program,  dictated  to  the  Army  Ordnance  Department  by  the  Gen- 
eral Staff,  which  in  turn  received  its  orders  from  Congress,  was  to 
have  followed  out  this  man-power  program.  When  war  was  de- 
clared against  Germany,  the  Ordnance  Department  did  the  thing 
calculated  to  set  the  wheels  going  in  the  quickest  possible  time. 
Instead  of  attempting  the  very  difficult  and  slow  process  of  formu- 
lating a  new  Ordnance  program,  it  crammed  the  total  specifica- 
tions of  the  four-year  peace  time  program  into  one  and  thus  stood 
ready,  or  sought  to  stand  ready,  to  begin  immediate  operations 
with  an  Ordnance  program  of  unprecedented  size  for  the  United 
States,  albeit  one  quite  insufficient  to  meet  the  demands  of  a  world 
war.  But  before  operations  could  be  begun,  Congress  had  to  ap- 
propriate funds.  And  before  the  estimates  could  be  laid  before 
Congress,  they  had  to  be  embodied  with  the  estimates  of  other  de- 
partments of  the  War  Department.  When  finally  they  were  pre- 
sented to  Congress,  committee  hearings  were  begun  upon  the  de- 
tails of  the  program.    It  was  not  until  three  months  after  the  dec-

There  is  no  chance  for  bluff  with  Ordnance  mate- 
riel. It  is  made  for  men  and  issued  to  men  who 
have  no  other  insurance  of  victory,  no  other  safe- 
guard against  death.  The  dependence  placed 
upon  it  is  too  great  to  allow  it  to  long  enjoy  a 
false  reputation.  When  soldiers  in  battle  express 
confidence  in  Ordnance  material,  they  are  backing 
their  opinion  with  their  lives  and  their  judg- 
ments must  weigh  with  the  rest  of  us  accordingly. 
A  burst  rifle  barrel,  a  jammed  cartridge  means 
the  life  of  a  soldier  for  which  Ordnance  is  respon- 
sible. Ordnance  placed  in  the  hands  of  the 
American  soldier  rifles  that  gave  his  country  his 
worth  as  a  man,  plus  his  value  with  the  best  of 
the  tools  of  war  in  his  hand.  The  weapon  had  to 
be  adapted  to  the  man ;  measured  to  fit  his  intel- 
ligence and  his  training.  A  rifle  suited  to  the  use 
of  a  Russian  peasant  soldier  would  not  efficiently 
serve  the  American  infantryman.  A  rifle  designed 
for  an  expert  marksman  would  not  efficiently 
serve  an  army  put  into  the  field  with  but  little 
training.

laration  of  war  that  the  first  dollar  was  made  available  for  tne 
manufacture  of  Ordnance  materiel  to  fight  the  war.  This  was  but 
a  preliminary,  emergency  recommendation.  Immediately  the  Ord- 
nance Department  began  the  preparation  of  its  estimates  for  the 
real  work  in  hand,  the  creation  of  what  really  amounted  to  a  new 
national  industry  throughout  the  land,  the  industry  of  munitions 
manufacture. 

At  this  point,  it  is  felt  necessary  to  make  the  first  criticism  of 
the  Ordnance  Department.  It  failed  to  break  the  law  quickly 
enough.  The  law  forbids  the  expenditure  of  money  or  the  con- 
tracting of  obligations  before  Congress  has  made  an  appropriation. 
Through  the  summer  of  1917,  the  Ordnance  Department  proceeded 
to  discuss  contracts  with  hundreds  of  manufacturers.  Every  de- 
tail in  these  contracts  was  threshed  out  and  the  contracts  made 
ready  for  signature  while  Congress  was  safeguarding  the  people's 
funds  with  its  hearings  upon  the  estimates.  Finally  in  August, 
1917,  the  Ordnance  Department  broke  the  law.  Work  was  started 
upon  contracts  with  the  approval  of  the  Ordnance  Department. 
Congress  made  the  necessary  appropriation  the  following  October. 
The  first  emergency  appropriations  of  June,  1917  were  for  $1,057,- 
557,030  and  the  appropriations  of  October  were  for  $3,374,633,102. 

But  even  at  this  preliminary  stage  this  was  not  a  business  that 
could  be  directed  by  those  fifteen  Ordnance  officers  who  were  on 
duty  in  Washington  in  April,  1917.  The  directing  force,  the  com- 
posite mind  of  the  commissioned  personnel,  had  to  be  provided 
before  the  plants  or  the  guns.  Whence  were  to  come  the  special- 
ists in  designs  and  industrial  processes  to  direct  the  execution  of 
this  stupendous  program? 

Other  of  the  technical  and  supply  corps  of  the  Army  could  find 
a  ready-made  stock  of  mental  ability  requiring  but  slight  reshaping 
or  training  to  fit  it  for  war  duties.  The  banks  and  accounting  de- 
partments of  commercial  establishments  offered  trained  material 
for  paymasters ;  electrical  engineers,  experts  in  telegraphy  and  tel- 
ephony were  ready  at  hand  for  the  signal  corps;  physicians  and 


[32] 


&e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


surgeons  offered  their  skilled  services  to  the  Medical  Department; 
civil  engineers  entered  the  Engineer  Corps.  Since  men  must  be  fed 
in  peace  as  in  war  it  was  simply  a  matter  of  taking  into  the  Army 
the  trained  men  who  directed  food  industries  in  peace  times  to  ex- 
pand the  commissary  department.  The  automobile  industry  pro- 
vided technical  men  for  the  Motor  Transport  Service.  In  short  each 
technical  corps  of  the  Army  received  trained  men  from  the  cor- 
responding industry  developed  as  a  part  of  the  industrial  peace- 
time organization  of  the  country. 

But  for  Ordnance  there  was  no  corresponding  industry  in  the 
peace  organization.  Ordnance  is  used  only  in  war  for  the  sole 
purpose  of  destroying  the  enemy,  of  killing  men  and  demolishing 
fortifications  or  for  the  counter  purpose  of  overcoming  the  de- 
structive force  of  the  enemy's  Ordnance. 

The  weapons  that  are  used  for  destruction  are  totally  dissimilar 
in  both  design  and  manner  of  construction  from  any  of  the  tools 
of  peace.  Consequently  the  engineers,  chemists  and  industrial  ex- 
perts in  civilian  life  who  had  devoted  themselves  to  the  develop- 
ment and  production  of  materials  useful  to  a  world  at  peace  had  no 
knowledge  of  the  design  or  manner  of  making  these  specialized 
tools  of  war.  This  was  the  general  rule.  The  exceptions  to  that 
rule  were  the  relatively  few  experts  of  the  only  two  commercial 
establishments  in  the  country  devoted  to  the  manufacture  of  artil- 
lery, the  experts  who  had  been  developed  for  the  commercial  manu- 
facture of  powder  and  explosives  and  those  in  the  very  few  peace 
industries  closely  analogous  to  certain  branches  of  the  work  of  the 
Ordnance  Department,  limited  practically  to  the  fireworks  or  pyro- 
technics industry  and  to  the  tractor  industry.  Knowledge  of  the 
industrial  problems  in  the  manufacture  of  rifles  had  also  been  de- 
veloped by  commercial  enterprise,  particularly  by  orders  placed 
with  American  manufacturers  by  the  European  belligerents  be- 
fore the  entrance  of  the  United  States  into  the  war.  The  need  for 
the  services  of  this  handful  of  experts  in  the  plants  being  loaded 
down  with  orders  for  munitions  was  so  great  that  the  Ordnance 


[33]

Department  had  to  forgo  a  claim  upon  them  and  only  in  very  few 
instances  were  Ordnance  officers  obtained  from  their  ranks. 

An  idea  of  how  Ordnance  "experts"  were  improvised  can  best  be 
given  perhaps  by  reciting  the  policy  of  the  Machine  Gun  Section 
of  the  Engineering  Division.  Before  the  war,  a  single  Ordnance 
officer  in  that  group  of  fifteen  on  duty  in  Washington  had  served 
as  the  expert  "staff"  on  automatic  weapons  and  he  had  combined 
his  direction  of  machine-gun  development  and  manufacture  with 
numerous  other  heavy  duties.  Certainly  not  more  than  four  other 
officers  of  the  Ordnance  Department  in  the  field  could  have  qual- 
ified as  machine-gun  experts.  All  of  them  were  young  officers,  the 
highest  rank  held  by  any  of  them  being  that  of  Captain.  To  obtain 
an  adequate  staff  of  machine-gun  "experts"  a  search  was  made 
through  the  training  camps  for  men  experienced  in  gas  engine  de- 
sign and  manufacture.  This  was  the  closest  analogy  possible. 
These  men  were  quickly  trained  in  general  knowledge  of  machine 
guns  and  then  were  made  to  specialize  upon  some  particular 
problem. 

By  this  same  process  of  taking  from  civilian  life  an  engineer 
familiar  with  material  bearing  some  analogy  to  something  to  be 
produced  by  Ordnance,  then  quickly  training  him  in  the  gen- 
eralities of  the  line  he  was  to  follow  in  Ordnance  and  finally  by 
jamming  within  the  confines  of  some  small  fraction  of  one  of  the 
Ordnance  problems  his  entire  broad  technical  knowledge,  were 
most  of  the  Ordnance  "experts"  of  the  war  period  improvised.  It 
is  a  tribute  to  the  genius  and  adaptability  of  American  engineers 
that  they  succeeded  so  remarkably  well  under  such  conditions. 
But  also  it  is  significant  to  note  that  in  every  instance  where  at 
the  end  Ordnance  production  was  having  hard  sledding,  the  lack 
of  expert  technical  knowledge  was  most  difficult  to  overcome  at 
the  beginning. 

Nor  was  the  lack  of  this  technical  knowledge  felt  only  in  the 
matter  of  design.  To  but  a  slightly  lesser  degree  did  it  handicap 
the  industrial  work  of  production.     Ordnance  industry  did  not

know  commercial  industry  and  commercial  industry  did  not  know 
Ordnance  industry.  Not  only  were  the  tools  and  equipment  of  the 
two  different,  but  their  ways  of  doing  things  were  different.  Their 
practice  and  methods  had  to  be  introduced  to  each  other  and 
harmonized.  The  ablest  men  from  the  industrial  field  were  brought 
into  the  Ordnance  Department  only  to  find  the  necessity  of  learn- 
ing many  things  before  they  could  hit  their  stride.  And  the  Ord- 
nance Department  of  the  Regular  Army  likewise  had  to  reform 
and  alter  many  of  its  arsenal  practices  when  it  began  production 
in  5,000  private  plants. 

At  a  monthly  rate  of  increase  which  it  is  simply  absurd  to  state 
in  percentages,  these  5,800  Ordnance  officers  were  commissioned 
from  civilian  life  and  put  at  this  new  and  unfamiliar  business — en- 
gineers, industrial  executives,  financiers,  administrators,  labor  ex- 
perts; designing,  buying,  building,  inspecting,  things  they  had  most 
of  them  never  seen  prior  to  April  6th,  1917.  Indeed,  more  than  a 
year  after  the  declaration  of  war  the  Trench  Warfare  Sections  of 
the  Ordnance  Department  gave  a  demonstration  of  materials  they 
were  making,  at  which  time  Colonel  Ragsdale,  in  charge  of  the  en- 
gineering work  on  trench  warfare  devices,  frankly  confessed  that 
he  had  witnessed  the  use  of  some  of  the  things  for  which  his  section 
was  responsible  for  the  first  time  in  his  life.  If  that  was  this  of- 
ficer's familiarity  with  some  of  the  100,000  different  things  Ord- 
nance was  producing  after  a  year  of  war,  it  is  interesting  to  con- 
jecture what  knowledge  of  them  most  of  the  officers  from  civilian 
life  had.  Nor  will  any  Ordnance  officer  consider  frivolous  the  sug- 
gestion that  in  shaking  down  and  transforming  into  an  efficient 
industrial  organization  this  huge  number  of  executives  (there  were 
79,720  civilian  employees  as  the  Ordnance  clerical  force)  the  mere 
task  of  finding  office  accommodations  for  them  and  the  frequent 
moves  from  office  to  office  and  from  building  to  building  it  was 
necessary  to  make,  was,  of  itself,  enough  to  ruin  the  Ordnance  pro- 
gram and  lose  the  war  for  democracy. 

The  United  States  was  at  war  nineteen  months.    As  has  been

said,  the  first  appropriations  made  for  the  expansion  and  creation 
of  plant  facilities  for  the  manufacture  of  Ordnance  passed  Con- 
gress in  October.  The  work  of  organizing  the  Ordnance  Depart- 
ment was  carried  forward  meanwhile.  These  facts  are  repeated  to 
emphasize  the  pertinent  fact  that  in  judging  of  the  result  achieved 
by  the  Ordnance  Department  in  nineteen  months  of  war,  a  good 
many  of  these  months  at  the  beginning  should  be  eliminated  from 
the  reckoning  because  of  unavoidable  lost  motion  and  of  inactiv- 
ities for  which  the  Ordnance  Department  was  by  no  means  respon- 
sible. It  is  my  purpose,  in  presenting  the  final  achievements  of 
the  Ordnance  Department  to  use  as  a  standard  of  measurement 
the  actual  production  of  Ordnance  materiel  by  France  and  Great 
Britain  during  the  same  nineteen  months  of  the  war.  It  is  there- 
fore important  to  bear  in  mind  what  transpired  in  the  United 
States  during  these  first  months  of  that  period  because  it  is  pro- 
posed to  match  achievements  with  two  great  nations  who  had  been 
at  war  for  three  years  before  the  period  of  comparison  begins. 
You  will  concede,  I  doubt  not,  that  it  is  a  bold  thing  to  attempt 
such  a  comparison.  It  is  indicative,  at  least,  of  the  confidence  the 
Ordnance  Department  has  in  its  record  of  achievement. 

Having  given  an  idea  of  the  disadvantages  under  which  the  Ord- 
nance Department  undertook  its  superhuman  task,  let  us  see  what 
handicaps  were  provided  in  favor  of  Ordnance.  The  allied  nations 
made  every  possible  effort  to  overcome  the  great  disadvantage  of 
lack  of  technical  preparedness.  They  gave  with  unstinted  gen- 
erosity plans,  specifications,  working  models,  the  closely  guarded 
secrets  of  their  famous  75  millimeter  gun  and  all  other  secret 
devices  and  processes.  The  three  years  of  war  experience  of  the 
Allies  was  made  an  open  book  for  the  United  States  Army  Ord- 
nance Department.  They  sent  Ordnance  officers  to  the  United 
States  to  assist.  But  the  transportation  of  this  technical  knowl- 
edge to  the  American  engineering  and  industrial  field  was  a  very 
difficult  and  slow  process.  For  example,  the  French  gave  the 
specifications  and  models  of  artillery.     But  these  specifications 


[36] 


t^e  Story"  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


were  drawn  to  the  metric  system  of  measurement.  American  spec- 
ifications are  based  upon  measurements  by  inches  and  fraction 
thereof.  Wherefore  every  specification  had  to  be  changed.  This 
was  difficult.  1  inch  equals  2.54001  centimeters.  For  the  transposi- 
tion neither  an  exact  multiple  nor  a  simple  fraction  is  offered. 
And  there  is  not  a  plant  in  America  where  a  single  tool,  drill, 
die  .or  screw  will  function  to  produce  the  result  specified  with  the 
French  plans  based  upon  the  centimeter. 

Shop  practices  in  France  and  in  the  United  States  differ  widely. 
Not  only  had  the  French  drawings  to  be  changed  from  the  metric 
system  of  measurement,  but  they  had  to  be  made  to  conform  to 
American  shop  practice.  Not  otherwise  could  American  tool 
equipment  and  standard  American  steel  shapes  have  been  used. 
When  they  were  introduced  into  American  shops,  these  French 
specifications  used  by  the  Ordnance  Department  were  not  a  trans- 
lation but  an  adaptation  from  the  French.  It  is  amazing  to  con- 
sider how  deeply  national  characteristics  are  imbedded  in  mechani- 
cal design.  We  think  of  mechanical  contrivances  as  things  having 
certainly  the  least  relationship  to  Latin,  or  Anglo-Saxon  char- 
acter, psychology  or  philosophy.  Yet  the  gun  that  a  Frenchman 
designs  is  as  French  to  its  finger-tips,  as  Timothy  Healy  might  put 
it,  as  any  gown  designed  by  Pacquin  or  as  any  poem  of  the  Latin 
quarter. 

The  Ford  automobile  was  developed  in  America  as  the  product 
of  distinctively  American  mechanical  genius  and  likewise  the 
French  75-millimeter  gun  is  the  child  of  French  temperment  and 
French  thought.  The  French  could  not  with  whatever  assistance 
from  Henry  Ford  in  the  way  of  plans  and  specifications  duplicate 
the  success  of  the  Detroit  enterprise,  and  we  could  not  exactly 
duplicate  the  work  of  French  mechanics  in  the  manufacture  of 
artillery.  In  America  the  mechanic  becomes  a  specialist  in  the 
production  of  a  single  part  working  to  tolerances,  depending  upon 
the  accuracy  of  guages  to  produce  interchangeable  parts  requir- 
ing little  or  no  hand-fitting  and  machining  when  the  entire  mech- 


[37] 


^e  Story"  sf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


anism  is  assembled.  But  the  French  machinist  is  developed  as  a 
highly  skilled  artist  working  always  with  the  picture  of  the  com- 
pletely assembled  mechanism  in  mind  and  in  the  habit  of  doing  a 
great  deal  of  careful  hand-fitting  as  the  parts  are  assembled.  The 
French  thus  gain  perfection  in  their  work  at  the  expense  of  speed. 
Generally  speaking,  highly  efficient  industrial  organization  on  the 
immense  scale  common  in  America  is  impossible  under  the  French 
system.  But  also  the  delicate  work  of  the  French  machinist  is 
impossible  for  the  American  workman  used  to  a  highly  specialized 
job  and  working  with  guages  and  close  tolerances. 

All  through  the  war  the  effort  was  continued  to  perfect  the 
adaptation  of  these  French  specifications  to  American  shop  prac- 
tices. Experts  and  foremen  from  the  French  arsenals  visited  the 
munitions  plants  in  the  United  States  and  in  turn  the  courtesies 
of  the  French  plants  were  offered  Americans.  Every  effort  was 
made  to  bridge  the  difficulties  resulting  from  this  differentiation 
of  national  character.  Nor  is  it  thought  to  underestimate  the 
value  of  French  co-operation  which  was  very  great.  The  net 
profit  to  the  Ordnance  program  from  the  availiability  of  French 
designs  was  of  much  value  to  the  United  States.  But  these  diffi- 
culties encountered  in  the  transposition  must  be  understood  before 
the  Ordnance  achievement  in  the  war  can  be  viewed  with  proper 
perspective.  Also  it  is  necessary  to  overcome  the  prevalent  con- 
viction, that  where  French  specifications  were  available  to  the 
Ordnance  Department,  the  engineering  problems  were  eliminated 
and  the  task  was  solely  the  industrial  one  of  pushing  production. 

The  size  of  the  Ordnance  program  has  been  suggested  by  the 
statement  that  in  dollars  it  represented  the  expenditure  within 
two  years  and  three  months  of  as  much  money  as  the  United  States 
Government  had  spent  for  every  purpose  whatsoever  in  over  140 
years.  Endless  comparisons  of  this  sort  might  be  made  to  impress 
the  layman  more  effectively  with  the  size  of  the  Ordnance  task. 
For  instance,  Colonel  James  L.  Walsh,  Executive  Assistant  to  the 
Chief  of  Ordnance,  determined  that  the  size  of  the  program  die- 


[38] 


Ordnance  started  here  with  a  bare  tract  of  land 
and  a  gun  design  borrowed  from  the  French.  In 
three  months  this  thirteen-acre  plant  was  built. 
Six  millions  of  dollars  worth  of  machine  tools 
were  installed.  An  operating  organization  was 
perfected  under  the  handicaps  of  a  chaotic  market 
for  labor  and  materials.  Finally  quantity  produc- 
tion was  achieved  on  a  French  mechanism  of  in- 
tricate design  unlike  anything  ever  built  before  by 
American  mechanics,  in  which  two  borings  were 
made  through  seven  feet  of  steel  tubing  running 
parallel  without  a  deviation  of  more  than  two- 
thousandths  of  an  inch.  Then  one-third  of  one 
type  of  gun  of  the  mammoth  artillery  program 
had  been  completed.  It  took  Great  Britain  nearly 
four  years  to  completely  equip  her  army  with 
artillery  and  artillery  ammunition.  The  United 
States  was  in  the  war  just  nineteen  months.  In 
four  years  we  should  have,  and  would  have,  bet- 
tered Great  Britain's  record  for  her  first  four 
years  of  war.

Te  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


tated  to  the  Ordnance  Department  by  the  General  Staff  was  equiv- 
alent to  the  expenditure  of  a  dollar  for  every  five  seconds  of  the 
time  from  the  birth  of  Christ  to  the  date  of  the  signing  of  the 
Armistice.  In  seeking  lurid  comparisons  to  indicate  the  size  of  the 
ammunition  output,  an  Ordnance  officer  became  disgusted  with 
computations  based  upon  the  distance  to  Mars  and  was  last  heard 
of  seeking  for  a  planet  which  really  could  show  some  class  in  its 
distance  from  Mother  Earth. 

But  the  actual  size  of  the  Ordnance  program  was  no  greater 
barrier  to  success  than  its  relative  size.  The  fulfillment  of  even 
these  stupendous  requirements  would  be  comparatively  easy  once 
the  rate  of  production  was  attained,  and  the  real  trick  of  perform- 
ance lay  in  bridging  the  gap  between  the  almost  insignificant 
rate  of  production  of  pre-war  times  and  the  rate  of  production 
required  for  armies  of  millions  of  men  at  war.  It  is  generally  rec- 
ognized by  military  men  that  one  of  the  reasons  why  the  Navy  got 
into  its  stride  quicker  than  the  Army  was  that  the  Navy  operated 
in  time  of  peace  more  nearly  upon  a  war  basis  and  the  ratio  of 
expansion  of  the  Navy  was  but  a  fraction  of  that  of  the  Army. 
With  no  Department  of  the  War  Department  was  expansion  so 
extreme  as  with  the  Ordnance  Department,  for  not  only  did  Ord- 
nance have  to  perform  the  task  of  increasing  its  production  from 
the  supply  of  an  Army  of  100,000  men  to  one  of  5,000,000  men 
(the  size  of  the  Army  determined  upon  by  the  General  Staff)  but 
it  had  also  to  provide  for  an  increase  of  Ordnance  per  man  since 
the  individual  consumption  of  Ordnance  materiel  in  war  is  thou- 
sands of  time  greater  than  in  peace,  whereas  a  man  cannot  eat 
much  more  in  war  than  he  does  in  peace.  Therefore,  had  Ord- 
nance been  supplying  the  individual  soldier  with  as  much  rifle 
ammunition  in  peace  as  he  required  in  war,  its  task  would  have 
been  to  increase  production  50,000  times  in  order  to  supply  the 
Army  of  5,000,000  men  contemplated.  But  each  soldier  using  such 
ammunition  required  over  1,000  per  cent  more  in  war  than  in  peace. 


[42] 


^e  Story"*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War' 


Hence  the  Ordnance  task  was  to  expand  production  50,000  times 
1,000  per  cent. 

Beyond  this  even  the  developments  of  the  war  burdened  Ord- 
nance with  the  provision  of  a  vast  number  of  new  weapons  and  an 
expansion  in  the  use  of  others,  for  instance,  the  machine  gun 
which  was  increased  from  fifty  guns  to  an  infantry  division  to  over 
one  thousand.  The  substitution  of  motor-drawn  for  horse-drawn 
artillery  likewise  increased  the  demands  upon  the  Ordnance 
Department  to  a  tremendous  degree  beyond  the  requirements  of 
the  pre-war  period.  In  no  previous  war  was  the  provision  of  Ord- 
inance materiel,  of  metal  per  man,  comparable  to  the  supply  re- 
quired in  this  war.  It  was  a  war  of  Ordnance.  Of  all  the  reasons 
rumored  for  the  sudden  crumpling  of  the  German  strength  one  sub- 
stantial thing  upon  which  we  can  put  our  finger,  was  the  certain 
knowledge  that  Germany's  efforts  had  exhausted  her  Ordnance 
reserves.  With  America  coming  into  the  field  with  fresh  men 
backed  with  unlimited  Ordnance  supplies  German  man-power 
could  not  stand  the  strain. 

ARTILLERY 

The  story  of  artillery  must  be  written  with  a  prologue — the 
story  of  the  building  of  plants,  the  design,  purchase,  Construction 
and  installation  of  machine  tools,  and  the  development  of  operating 
organizations  to  carry  through  the  artillery  program.  With  the 
exception  of  two  private  manufacturing  concerns,  the  Bethlehem 
Steel  Co.  and  the  Midvale  Steel  Company,  there  was  not  a  manu- 
facturer in  the  United  States  who  was  equipped  to  build  artillery 
or  who  knew  anything  of  the  processes.  For  the  most  part,  private 
plants  in  existence  were  required  for  the  production  of  other  war 
materials  and  so,  for  the  manufacture  of  artillery,  it  was  necessary 
to  build  new  plants.  Even  before  that  could  be  started,  however, 
the  Ordnance  Department  found  it  necessary  to  locate  a  group  of 
manufacturers  willing  to  attempt  this  work.  As  an  illustration,  to 
build  the  recuperator  system  for  a  piece  of  artillery  the  Ordnance 


[43] 


*®e  Story  sf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Department  would  select  a  successful  manufacturer  of  sewing  ma- 
chines, automobiles,  safes  or  elevators ;  would  provide  him  financial 
support  for  the  erection  of  a  plant,  start  out  with  him  in  the  digging 
of  a  foundation  for  his  plant,  work  with  him  while  it  was  building, 
assist  him  with  the  development  of  an  operating  organization,  with 
the  purchase  and  installation  of  machine  tools  and  finally  start  him 
upon  the  actual  work  of  manufacturing  a  recuperator. 

The  facilities  of  government  arsenals  for  the  manufacture  of 
artillery  were  out  of  all  proportion  to  the  program  dictated  to  the 
Ordnance  Department  by  the  General  Staff.  They  had  manu- 
factured as  many  3-inch  field  guns  in  thirteen  years  as  the  Ord- 
nance program  for  the  war  called  for  in  one  month.  Obviously,  the 
task  of  the  Ordnance  Department  under  such  conditions  is  not 
comparable  in  any  respect  with  that  which  confronted  France, 
Great  Britain  or  Germany.  Germany  had  Krupps.  Prance  had 
tremendous  arsenals.  England  had  developed  the  manufacture  of 
naval  guns  for  her  own  uses  and  for  commercial  purposes.  How- 
ever, from  the  standpoint  of  pre-war  preparedness,  or  unprepared- 
ness  if  you  please,  the  position  of  England  was  perhaps  more  fairly 
comparable  to  that  of  the  United  States  than  in  the  case  of  any 
of  the  other  great  belligerent  nations.  It  is  interesting  therefore 
for  Americans  to  consider  the  following  statement  from  the  British 
Ministry  of  Munitions: 

"It  is  very  difficult  to  say  how  long  it  was  before  the  British 
Army  was  thoroughly  equipped  with  artillery  and  ammunition. 
The  ultimate  size  of  the  Army  aimed  at  was  continually  increased 
during  the  first  three  years  of  the  war,  so  that  Ordnance  require- 
ments were  continually  increasing.  It  is  probably  true  to  say  that 
the  equipment  of  the  Army,  as  planned  in  the  early  summer  of  1915, 
was  completed  by  September,  1916...  As  a  result,  however,  of  the 
battle  of  Verdun  and  the  early  stages  of  the  battle  of  the  Somme, 
a  great  change  was  made  in  the  standard  of  equipment  per  division 
of  the  Army,  followed  by  further  increases  in  September,  1916. 


[44] 


Ws  Storjr  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


The  Army  was  not  completely  equipped  on  this  new  scale  until 
Spring  1918." 

It  took  Great  Britain  nearly  four  years  to  completely  equip  her 
army  with  artillery  and  artillery  ammunition.  The  United  States 
was  in  the  war  just  nineteen  months.  It  must  be  borne  in  mind  that 
the  United  States  began  with  the  revised  standards  of  artillery 
equipment ;  that  is  to  say  the  United  States  undertook  at  the  outset 
a  total  program  based  upon  standards  which  the  British  did  not 
adopt  until  after  the  battle  of  the  Somme.  Had  the  war  lasted 
longer,  this  would  have  been  a  tremendous  advantage  to  the  United 
States,  for  it  always  makes  for  ultimate  delay  to  enlarge  and  revise 
a  munitions  program  in  the  middle  of  the  game.  But  to  embark 
upon  the  larger  program  at  the  outset,  inevitably  reduces  produc- 
tion in  the  early  stages.  As  Major  General  Williams  expresses  it, 
"Obviously  a  housewife  could  buy  an  oven  and  bake  six  loaves  of 
bread  in  less  time  than  a  bakery  could  be  built  and  provision  made 
for  the  needs  of  an  entire  city."  Starting  with  the  more  ambitious 
program,  therefore,  less  production  could  reasonably  be  expected 
of  the  United  States  than  of  Great  Britain  in  the  first  two  years  of 
war,  because  the  United  States  would  devote  a  relatively  greater 
part  of  its  effort  to  plant  construction  and  preliminary  work.  In 
four  years,  however,  we  should  have,  and  would  have,  bettered 
Great  Britain's  record  for  her  first  four  years  of  war. 

To  judge  of  what  actually  was  accomplished  therefore  it  is 
necessary  to  measure  progress  made  in  the  building  of  these  plants 
before  we  take  up  the  count  of  artillery  production  in  detail.  Even 
in  judging  of  progress  in  this  preliminary  work,  it  is  necessary  to 
strike  out  several  months.  The  first  war  appropriation  for  artil- 
lery construction  was  not  passed  by  Congress  until  June  and  the 
full  allotment  for  this  work  was  not  available  until  October  6,  1917 ; 
six  months  after  our  entrance  into  the  war.  Appropriations  prior 
to  that  date  provided  for  about  one  sixth  of  the  artillery  required 
for  the  first  two  million  men. 

To  give  an  idea  of  the  preliminary  plant  construction  and  equip-

ment  work  two  statements  are  here  quoted  which  were  issued  by 
the  Ordnance  Department  in  the  summer  of  1918,  reporting  pro- 
gress along  this  line.  The  first  of  these  statements,  issued  July  26, 
1918,  is  as  follows: 

"The  Army  Ordnance  Department  announces  the  completion  of 
15  of  the  16  gun  plants  for  the  forging  and  machining  of  cannon. 
The  sixteenth  plant  is  85  per  cent  complete. 

"In  the  erection  of  these  plants  the  Government  has  expended 
$34,768,297. 

"It  was  necessary  to  provide  these  plants  as  a  preliminary  to  the 
production  of  but  one  part  of  a  complete  gun  which  includes,  be- 
sides the  body  or  barrel,  a  carriage  and  a  complicated  recuperator 
and  recoil  system. 

"All  sixteen  plants  now  are  producing  cannon  or  cannon  forg- 
ings  for  mobile  artillery  from  11/2  inches  to  ten  inches. 

"While  none  of  the  companies  operating  these  plants  had  ever 
been  engaged  in  Ordnance  manufacture,  all  have  successfully  met 
the  rigid  requirements  and  are  today  producing  material  that  is  the 
equivalent  of  the  best  products  of  the  ordnance  manufacturers  of 
France  and  Great  Britain. 

"The  building  of  the  sixteen  plants  started  as  soon  as  funds  be- 
came available — in  July,  1917 — and  progressed  so  rapidly  that  ma- 
chinery was  in  operation  and  actual  operations  on  cannon  in  pro- 
gress in  January,  1918.  One  plant,  the  site  of  which  was  a  ravine  in 
August,  1917,  had  completed  its  first  6-inch  howitzer  in  February, 
1918 — seven  months  later. 

"Construction  of  almost  all  the  plants  was  delayed  by  weather 
conditions,  traffic  delays,  and  the  pressure  on  the  machine  tool  in- 
dustry, upon  which  heavy  demands  were  being  made  by  many 
departments  of  the  Government,  including  the  Navy  and  the 
Emergency  Fleet  Corporation.  The  Ordnance  Department  was 
forced  to  wait  its  turn* 

"Typical  of  weather  conditions  that  delayed  construction  was 
the  forming  of  two  feet  of  ice  in  the  wooden  forms  into  which 


[46] 


&e  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


cement  was  being  poured  for  the  foundation  of  a  large  press  at 
one  plant.  A  circus  tent  was  pitched  over  the  operation  and  stoves 
were  installed  to  permit  the  work  to  proceed.  A  storm  at  night 
lifted  the  tent  into  the  Delaware  River. 

"Typical  of  traffic  delays  was  the  holding  of  five  carloads  of 
steel  for  three  weeks  within  fifteen  miles  of  the  site  of  the  plant 
building. 

"Of  the  sixteen  plants,  five  have  their  machinery  100  per  cent 
installed  and  100  per  cent  in  operation.  Five  others  are  90  per 
cent  or  more  complete  as  to  installation  of  machinery.  Only  two 
are  as  low  as  65  per  cent,  and  one  of  these  is  the  $9,180,207  project 
at  the  Watervliet  Government  Arsenal." 

The  second  statement  issued  by  Ordnance  dealt  with  the 
twenty-six  additional  gun  carriage  plants  which  had  to  be  built  as 
a  preliminary  to  the  manufacture  of  artillery.  It  was  issued  on 
August  23,  1918,  and  is  as  follows: 

"The  Army  Ordnance  Department  announces  the  completion 
of  19  of  26  plants  for  the  production  of  gun  carriages  and  recoil 
mechanisms.  Of  the  seven  other  plants,  four  are  98  per  cent  com- 
plete, one  is  95  per  cent  complete,  one  90  per  cent  complete,  and  one 
85  per  cent  complete. 

"To  provide  plant  facilities — buildings  and  machinery — for  the 
production  on  a  large  scale  of  carriages  and  recoil  mechanisms  for 
artillery  of  all  calibres,  the  Ordnance  Department  has  expended 
$24,837,336.  Altogether  the  amount  expended  or  obligated  to  date 
to  provide  facilities  for  the  production  of  guns  (artillery,  of 
course),  carriages  and  recoil  mechanisms,  totals  $99,606,633.  This 
sum  does  not  include  provision  made  for  the  manufacture  of  artil- 
lery limbers,  caissons,  and  ammunition  wagons. 

"As  was  the  case  with  the  gun  plants,  a  new  industry  had  to  be 
created  for  the  production  of  gun  carriages.  The  problem  of  car- 
riage production  in  America  was  even  more  difficult  than  that  of 
forging  and  machining  cannon.  For  example,  the  carriage  of  the 
240  mm.  howitzer,  the  most  complex  of  carriages,  comprises  about 


[47] 


*®e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


6,000  separate  pieces,  exclusive  of  rivets.  The  carriage  for  155  mm. 
guns  or  155  mm.  howitzers,  comprises  between  3,000  and  3,500 
separate  pieces,  exclusive  of  rivets. 

"All  of  the  twenty  six  gun  carriage  plants  are  in  operation,  even 
those  that  took  over  the  production  of  French  models.  The  build- 
ing of  French  model  carriages  in  this  country  necessitated  special 
arrangements  with  the  French  government,  the  procurement  of 
French  drawings  of  all  parts  of  the  carriages,  the  translation  into 
English  measurements  of  those  drawings,  the  selection  of  plants  to 
manufacture  the  carriages,  the  building  of  new  shops,  the  manu- 
facture and  installation  of  special  machinery,  even  the  building  of 
special  machine  tools  with  which  to  make  the  machine  tool  equip- 
ment of  the  carriage  plants,  the  standardization  of  manufacture  to 
such  a  degree  that  any  part  produced  in  any  plant  should  be  inter- 
changeable with  any  similar  part  produced  in  any  other  plant,  and 
all  parts  produced  in  American  plants  should  be  interchangeable 
with  similar  parts  produced  in  French  plants. 

"Two  companies  are  producing  carriages  for  the  155  mm. 
howitzer.  One  of  these  formerly  made  steel  passenger  cars  and  the 
other  safes.  A  company  which  formerly  manufactured  hoisting 
and  mining  machinery  is  making  carriages  for  the  155  mm.  gun. 
There  are  three  types  of  the  75  mm.  gun  carriage  in  production  at 
four  plants,  of  which  one  is  a  government  arsenal,  one  produced 
ordnance  before  the  war,  one  manufactured  automobiles,  and  an- 
other one  air  brakes.  Recoil  mechanisms  for  the  155's  are  being 
made  by  an  elevator  company  and  by  an  automobile  manufacturer, 
and  those  for  the  75's  are  being  made  by  a  sewing  machine  com- 
pany and  a  government  arsenal." 

So  here  was  the  Ordnance  Department  in  the  summer  of  1918 
announcing  the  practical  completion  of  a  new  $100,000,000  industry 
as  a  preliminary  to  the  manufacture  of  artillery.  It  was  a  new 
industry  throughout,  new  machine  tools,  new  processes,  new  or 
else  foreign  and  unfamiliar  designs,  new  operating  organizations. 
And  it  was  built  under  the  most  difficult  conditions,    delays    in

Each  of  these  guns,  in  one  minute,  can  hurl  five 
95-pound  projectiles  a  distance  of  well  over  seven 
miles.  The  gun  is  automatically  restorted  to  its 
original  position  within  13  seconds  after  being 
fired.  It  is  this  feature — the  hydro-pneumatic 
recoil  system — which  gives  this  rapidity  of  fire 
and  makes  this  so  formidable  a  weapon.  It  is 
also  the  recoil  which  proved  so  difficult  to  manu- 
facture. The  guns  are  at  the  Aberdeen  Proving 
Ground  to  be  proof-fired.  No  weapon  was  re- 
leased to  American  troops  until  it  had  been  thus 
tested.  The  first  model  or  pilot-gun  was  sub- 
mitted to  very  severe  tests.  Such  a  gun  was  in 
fact  shot  to  pieces  to  determine  its  length  of  life. 
Subsequently  each  gun  of  that  type  was  proof- 
fired  to  make  certain  that  it  would  properly 
function  at  the  front.

traffic,  almost  unprecedented  weather  conditions,  scarcity  in  raw 
materials,  machine  tools  and  labor,  factors  largely  or  wholly  out- 
side the  control  of  the  Ordnance  Department.  No  man  may 
rightly  or  intelligently  comment  upon  the  performance  of  the 
Ordnance  Department  in  the  production  of  artillery  unless  he 
knows  this  preliminary  work  through  and  through.  It  is  only 
by  keeping  a  realization  of  it  constantly  in  mind  in  reading  the 
pages  that  follow  in  this  book,  that  the  reader  may  understand 
at  all  the  significance  of  the  facts  and  figures  hereafter  given  in 
connection  with  the  artillery  program. 

MOBILE  FIELD  ARTILLERY 
Types  of  mobile  field  artillery  placed  under  quantity  production 
during  the  war  period  ranged  from  the  little  37-millimeter,  or  1.5 
inch,  "infantry  cannon,"  a  French  design,  which  two  husky  in- 
fantrymen could  lift  from  the  ground,  to  the  powerful  French  240- 
millimeter  howitzer  and  the  British  9.2-inch  gun,  which  had  ap- 
proximately the  same  bore. 

This  little  1.5-inch  weapon,  designed  by  the  French  in  1885, 
came  into  its  own  during  the  great  war.  It  was  chiefly  employed 
in  assault  on  the  German  concrete  pill  boxes,  machine-gun  nests,  or 
other  isolated  strongholds.  It  proved  itself  a  veritable  tartar  at 
the  work.  Three  or  four  well  directed  shots  were  generally  suf- 
ficient to  effectually  wipe  them  out.  Loading  a  substantial  charge 
of  TNT,  it  had  an  effective  range  of  more  than  two  miles,  and 
deadly  accuracy  in  either  direct  or  indirect  fire  was  obtained 
through  its  elaborate  fire  control  equipment.  When  placed  in 
action  the  wheel  gear  was  dropped  and  the  gun  set  up  on  its  front 
leg  and  a  rear  split  trail,  forming  a  tripod.  In  quick  advance  action 
the  gun  could  be  detached  from  its  support  mechanism,  two  in- 
fantrymen carrying  each  of  the  two  parts,  while  the  other  four  men 
of  the  crew  of  eight  brought  up  the  ammunition  boxes,  ordinarily 
carried  in  a  trailer.  One  of  these  weapons  was  issued  to  each  bat- 
talion, or  three  to  a  regiment. 


[52] 


^e  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Beginning  in  October,  1917,  the  Ordnance  Department  placed 
orders  for  a  total  of  2,597  of  these  guns,  826  having  been  completed 
when  the  armistice  was  signed.  Orders  for  641  were  placed  with 
the  French.  When  hostilities  ceased,  American  factories  were 
turning  out  ten  a  day,  or  more  than  sufficient  to  supply  our  divis- 
ions. 

Problems  quite  out  of  proportion  to  the  dimensions  of  this  little 
weapon  were  encountered  in  placing  it  in  production  in  American 
factories,  but  these  were  successfully  solved  and  the  program  was 
well  up  to  the  mark  when  the  fighting  ceased. 

THE  REDOUBTABLE  75. 

Mounting  in  the  scale  of  sizes,  we  come  to  the  75-millimeter 
gun.  This  weapon  played  the  most  important  role  in  the  victory  of 
Allied  arms;  it  practically  dominated  the  battlefields  of  Europe. 
The  Ordnance  Department  from  the  beginning  stressed  its  produc- 
tion to  the  point  where  for  every  gun  of  another  size  produced  we 
turned  out  a  75.  It  thus  constituted  in  itself  one-half  of  our  entire 
artillery  program. 

In  the  production  of  this  class  of  weapon  the  Ordnance  Depart- 
ment had  to  begin  practically  from  the  "take-off."  We  had  no 
model  of  our  own  in  production  that  could  be  adhered  to,  our  equip- 
ment in  this  class  of  weapon  when  we  entered  the  war  consisting  of 
640  three-inch  field  guns  of  the  old  1902  model.  In  the  evolution  of 
Ordnance  the  limited  elevation  and  traverse  of  this  weapon  had 
rendered  it  obsolescent.  The  Ordnance  Department  faced  the  un- 
deniable fact  and  did  not  yield  to  the  poor  argument  that  because 
this  model  might  be  produced  with  greater  facility  than  a  new  one 
it  should  be  given  preference.  The  split-trail  design  of  light  field 
gun  had  been  demonstrated  to  be  immeasurably  superior.  It  per- 
mitted far  greater  elevation  of  fire  by  letting  the  gun  body  swing 
down  between  the  divergent  trails  and  also  a  wider  traverse  move- 
ment of  the  gun  than  was  possible  with  the  single-trail  carriage. 
Fortunately,  the  Ordnance  Department  had  itself  in  1913  begun  the 


[53] 


We  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


development  of  a  split-trail  carriage  design.  A  model  of  this  design 
had  been  thoroughly  tested  and  an  order  for  172  had  been  placed  a 
few  months  before  we  entered  the  war.  But  no  facilities  had  been 
established  and  the  1916  model  of  carriage,  as  it  is  known,  had  in  no 
sense  come  into  production. 

Early  quantity  production  in  this  class  of  weapon  was  rec- 
ognized as  the  paramount  necessity.  The  French  75-millimeter 
gun  was  recognized  as  the  premier  weapon  of  this  class  and  every 
effort  was  made  at  once  to  transplant  its  manufacture  to  this 
country.  But  delay  and  uncertainty  in  getting  production  under 
way  were  seen  to  be  inevitable.  It  would  have  been  imprudent,  in- 
deed, to  hold  up  all  other  production  until  this  could  be  done,  yet  the 
Ordnance  Department  was  criticized  in  many  quarters  for  splitting 
up  its  program  in  this  class  of  weapon  instead  of  concentrating 
from  the  beginning  on  the  French  75. 

The  Bethlehem  Steel  Company  had  been  manufacturing  car- 
riages for  the  British  3.3-inch  gun,  capacity  was  there  ready  to  be 
utilized  to  the  limit,  and  the  Ordnance  Department  wisely  de- 
termined to  use  it.  Orders  for  1,427  of  the  British  type  of  carriage 
were  placed  in  rapid  succession  with  the  Bethlehem  company,  be- 
ginning in  May,  1917.  Simultaneously,  additional  orders  were 
placed  for  755  of  our  own  1916  model.  These  orders  constituted  a 
very  wise  alternative  to  the  French  75  project.  Shortly  after  they 
were  placed,  the  Ordnance  Department  reached  the  momentous  de- 
cision to  make  both  types  of  carriage  conform  to  the  French  75- 
millimeter  size — slightly  less  than  3  inches.  Here,  indeed,  was 
a  master  stroke  in  our  war-time  ordnance  preparation.  Munitions 
production  was  simplified  enormously  by  calling  for  the  manu- 
facture of  a  uniform  size  shell  for  this  class  of  gun,  and  above  all  it 
gave  us  interchangeability  of  ammunition  with  the  French  on  the 
battlefield. 

The  problem  of  getting  sufficient  gun  bodies  produced  for  the 
75-millimeter  units  was  far  less  vexing.  Orders  were  placed  for 
these  concurrently  with  the  carriage  orders  and  their  production 


[54] 


*®e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


was  well  timed  with  the  other  program.  Three  types  of  gun  bodies 
were  built,  the  American,  British,  and  French  type,  but  all  of  the 
7  5 -millimeter  bore. 

Meanwhile  all  plans  for  getting  the  French  75  carriage  under 
production  were  being  held  up  because  of  difficulty  and  delay  in 
getting  the  drawings.  The  first  drawings  were  not  received  until 
August,  1917,  and  complete  data  were  not  in  hand  until  the  follow- 
ing April,  more  than  a  year  after  our  entry  into  the  war.  Many  of 
the  measurements  the  French  themselves  did  not  have  upon  paper. 
In  producing  the  superb  recuperator  mechanism  of  these  carriages 
they  relied  extensively  upon  hand  fitting  and  deviated  considerably 
from  blue  print  dimensions.  Finally,  all  drawings  as  received  had 
to  be  translated  into  our  units  of  measurement,  which  constituted 
one  of  the  greatest  tasks  involved  in  the  French  gun  projects. 

Construction  of  the  recuperator  systems  on  these  guns  pre- 
sented the  most  formidable  challenge  to  American  industrial  and 
technical  skill  that  it  has  perhaps  ever  been  called  upon  to  meet. 
Such  exquisitely  fine  workmanship  was  necessary  in  the  production 
of  these  recuperators  that  French  ordnance  experts  were  skeptical, 
and  justifiably  so,  that  the  American  mechanic  could  be  trained  in 
their  production  in  time  for  their  use  in  the  war.  Although  the 
superiority  of  the  recuperator  on  this  as  well  as  on  the  larger 
French  guns  was  universally  conceded,  Germany  had  never  been 
able  to  make  them,  and  England,  with  the  assistance  of  French 
ordnance  experts  freely  offered  at  the  beginning  of  the  war,  did 
not  attempt  them. 

By  December,  1917,  complete  drawings  for  the  carriage  of  the 
French  75  had  been  received  and  an  order  for  3,049  of  them  was 
placed  with  the  Willys-Overland  Motor  Car  Company.  Not  until 
February,  1918,  however,  were  all  specifications  for  the  recuperator 
in  hand.  After  a  thorough  canvass  of  all  industrial  establishments 
that  might  be  induced  to  undertake  the  manufacture  of  this 
mechanism,  the  Singer  Manufacturing  Company,  producers  of  sew- 
ing machines,  finally  consented  to  do  so,  and  in  March,  1918,  they 


[55] 


e&e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


accepted  an  order  for  2,500  recuperators.  The  following  month 
1,000  additional  were  ordered  to  be  turned  out  at  the  Rock  Island 
Arsenal.  When  these  recuperators  began  to  come  through,  it 
marked  their  first  production  in  a  factory  outside  of  French  ter- 
ritory. 

When  hostilities  ceased  American  factories  were  turning  out 
carriages  for  the  three  types  of  75-millimeter  gun  at  the  rate  of  393 
per  month,  a  total  of  1,221  having  been  delivered  up  to  that  time. 
The  production  of  gun  bodies  was  always  ahead  of  the  carriage 
output.  At  the  rate  of  increase  in  carriage  production  we  would 
have  been  turning  out  800  carriages  a  month  by  February,  1919. 
To  equip  our  divisions  in  France  before  it  could  be  hoped  that 
American  factories  could  attain  quantity  production  in  75-milli- 
meter material,  the  Ordnance  Department  took  advantage  of  ex- 
cess capacity  in  the  French  shops,  and  beginning  in  June,  1917, 
placed  orders  with  the  French  Government  for  a  total  of  2,806  75- 
millimeter  guns,  of  which  1,828  had  been  delivered  when  the 
armistice  was  signed.  But  the  rate  of  output  attained  by  our  own 
ordnance  preparation  would  have  been  sufficient  to  supply  75's  for 
our  entire  projected  army  of  3,360,000  men  on  the  front  in  the 
summer  of  1919. 

OUR  OWN  PRODUCT. 

In  placing  in  quantity  production  the  4.7-inch  field  gun,  1906 
model,  of  which  we  had  62  in  service  when  we  entered  the  war,  the 
United  States  contributed  a  highly  effective  weapon  to  the  artillery 
strength  of  the  Allied  armies.  It  was  a  proven  weapon,  developed 
under  exhaustive  tests  and  experiments.  Had  the  war  continued 
so  as  to  permit  an  effective  accumulation  of  these  guns,  their  best 
target  would  have  been  the  enemy's  77-millimeter  gun.  With  their 
greater  range  and  power,  they  would  have  been  particularly  useful 
in  destroying  this  enemy  weapon. 

At  its  maximum  elevation  of  15  degrees,  this  gun  throws  a  60- 
pound  projectile  a  distance  of  4  1/2  miles,  and  has  a  correspond- 


[56] 


*3?e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


ingly  greater  range  with  lighter  projectiles.  It  has  a  recoil  action 
of  70  inches,  taken  up  by  a  hydraulic  cylinder  and  a  system  of 
springs. 

Owing  to  the  very  limited  ready  capacity  for  turning  out  car- 
riages and  gun  bodies  for  this  unit,  the  Ordnance  Department  faced 
almost  the  same  pioneer  undertaking  in  its  production  as  in  the 
case  of  the  French  designs.  It  was  necessary  to  place  orders  for 
gun  forgings  with  manufacturers  who  had  had  no  previous  exper- 
ience whatever  in  the  work.  Owing  to  great  variations  in  the  gross 
section  of  the  gun  bodies  these  manufacturers  experienced  great 
difficulty  in  the  heat  treatment  of  the  forgings.  The  program  in- 
volved the  erection  of  entirely  new  forging  and  machining  plants 
in  many  cases.  It  involved  trans-shipment  of  rough  forgings  to  the 
machine  shop,  perhaps  several  hundred  miles  away,  under  the  fear- 
fully congested  transportation  conditions  that  prevailed  in  those 
months.  That  is  why  the  output  of  finished  gun  bodies  determined 
in  the  case  of  this  4.7-inch  gun  the  number  that  we  could  put  on  the 
front.  Carriage  production  in  this  unit  was  always  considerably 
ahead  of  cannon  output. 

Despite  the  enormous  obstacles  encountered  in  getting  pro- 
duction of  this  gun  under  way,  which  we  can  do  barely  more  than 
suggest  in  this  space,  when  the  armistice  was  signed  production 
was  mounting  into  substantial  monthly  deliveries.  More  than  150 
gun  bodies  had  been  completed  and  of  the  total  of  933  carriages,  in- 
cluding recoil  mechanism,  ordered  beginning  in  July,  1917,  308  had 
been  delivered. 

THE  155-MILLIMETER  HOWITZER. 
There  is  no  finer  product  of  French  gun  craft  than  the  155- 
millimeter  howitzer.  Next  to  the  75-millimeter  gun,  it  was  the 
most  serviceable  weapon  in  the  Allied  armies  and  the  best  known. 
There  could  be  no  greater  testimonial  to  the  skill  and  resourceful- 
ness of  American  industry  than  its  duplication  in  the  space  of  a 
few  months  of  this  weapon  which  had  never  before  been  built  out- 


[57] 


*®e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


side  of  the  factory  of  its  original  designer,  the  French  firm  of 
Schneider  &  Cie.  The  French  had  been  developing  and  perfecting 
the  design  of  this  gun  for  nearly  twenty  years  when  the  war  began 
in  1914. 

The  155  howitzer  weighs  less  than  four  tons,  is  extremely 
mobile  for  a  weapon  of  its  size,  and  in  one  minute  can  hurl  five  95- 
pound  projectiles  a  distance  of  well  over  7  miles.  This  rapidity  of 
fire  is  made  possible  by  the  perfection  of  its  hydropneumatic  recoil 
system,  which  restores  the  huge  gun  body  to  its  exact  aim  within 
13  seconds  after  each  shell  is  fired  by  means  of  converting  the  recoil 
action  into  compressed  air  energy  which  realigns  the  gun.  It  was 
the  duplication  of  this  superfine  mechanism  that  formed  the  crux 
of  the  entire  project,  just  as  did  the  75-millimeter  recuperator. 
Consider  that  this  155  recuperator  is  turned  out  from  a  solid  forg- 
ing weighing  3,875  pounds,  which  is  reduced  to  only  870  pounds 
when  converted  into  the  finished  article,  after  a  machining  process 
requiring  the  finest  precision. 

The  carriage  for  the  155  howitzer  also  proved  the  most  difficult 
to  manufacture  of  all  the  gun  mounts  placed  under  production. 
The  extreme  lightness  and  mobility  of  this  weapon  was  obtained 
by  the  combination  of  a  very  short  cannon  and  the  incorporation  of 
many  ingenious  features  of  design  to  reduce  the  weight  of  the 
carriage.  The  latter  was  built  of  a  multiplicity  of  pressed  steel  and 
flanged  parts  instead  of  one  or  two  major  castings,  which  neces- 
sitated the  design  and  construction  of  numberless  jigs  and  fixtures 
before  it  could  be  placed  in  production.  It  also  required  a  high 
grade  of  steel  and  bronze  that  had  previously  not  been  manu- 
factured in  quantity  in  this  country. 

Although  the  plans  of  the  155  howitzer  were  secured  in  the 
spring  of  1917,  the  work  of  translating  the  specifications  into 
American  measurements  monopolized  the  entire  time  of  an  expert 
staff  until  the  next  October.  By  August,  1917,  however,  it  was  pos- 
sible to  place  an  order  for  3,000  gun  bodies  for  this  unit.  The  con- 
cern that  accepted  the  order  built  and  equipped  an  entire  plant  and

A  French-made  155-m.m.  howitzer  firing  from  the 
ruins  of  the  captured  town  of  Varennes  at  the 
retreating  German  columns.  The  French  had 
been  developing  and  perfecting  the  design  of  this 
gun  for  nearly  twenty  years  when  the  war  began. 
From  the  Spring  of  1917  until  the  following 
October  was  spent  in  adapting  the  design  of  this 
gun  to  American  shop  practice.  The  concern  that 
accepted  the  order  for  the  gun  bodies,  built  and 
equipped  an  entire  plant  and  was  turning  out  12 
gun  bodies  a  day  within  six  months.  The  first 
gun  carriage  was  completed  in  July  1918.  An- 
other $10,000,000  plant  was  built  for  the  manu- 
facture of  the  recuperator  of  this  gun,  the  most 
difficult  mechanical  operation  of  all.  By  Novem- 
ber, 1918,  recuperators  were  being  produced  at 
the  rate  of  16  per  day;  854  having  been  com- 
pleted when  the  armistice  was  signed.  When  hos- 
tilities ended,  the  first  regiment  equipped  with 
these  weapons  made  in  the  U.  S.  A.  was  waiting 
to  embark.

If  you  will  stop  to  count  the  number  of  caissons 
and  limbers  shown  in  this  picture  it  will  give  you 
a  basis  upon  which  to  build  an  understanding  of 
the  magnitude  of  the  artillery  program.  There 
was  nothing  very  difficult  in  the  production  of 
these  caissons  and  limbers — a  mere  problem  in 
quantity  production.  It  was  to  provide  the  cor- 
responding gun  and  carriage  for  each  of  them  that 
was  the  herculean  task  of  Ordnance.  With  one 
type  alone — the  3-inch  or  75-millimeter — it  was 
the  task  of  Ordnance  during  the  World  War  to 
produce  a  number  each  month  equal  to  the  total 
production  for  the  United  States  Army  during  the 
thirteen  years  preceding  our  entrance  into  the 
war.  The  United  States  Army  had  never  been 
provided  with  the  larger  caliber  mobile  field  guns, 
for  the  very  good  reason  that  American  artillery, 
designed  for  American  defense,  was  not  intended 
for  the  special  task  of  fortress  demolition  en- 
countered in  the  war  in  Europe.

was  turning  out  12  bodies  a  day  within  six  months  after  the  con- 
tract was  signed.  This  feat,  performed  by  the  American  Brake 
Shoe  and  Foundry  Company,  of  Erie,  Pa.,  stands  out  as  perhaps 
the  most  remarkable  of  our  Ordnance  preparation.  Orders  for 
2,469  carriages  were  placed  in  November,  1917.  Despite  the  dif- 
ficulties encountered  in  getting  production  under  way,  the  first  car- 
riage was  completed  and  ready  for  test  in  July,  1918. 

The  recuperator  was  the  third  group  into  which  the  manufac- 
ture of  this  weapon  was  divided  in  order  to  obtain  the  advantage  of 
specialization.  Great  difficulty  was  experienced  in  locating  a  con- 
cern willing  to  undertake  the  manufacture  of  such  an  exacting 
piece  of  mechanism  as  the  155  recuperator.  The  responsibility  was 
finally  accepted,  however,  by  Dodge  Bros.,  of  Detroit,  manufac- 
turers of  motor  cars,  the  order  being  placed  in  November,  1917.  To 
execute  it  they  built  and  equipped  an  elaborate  plant  at  a  cost  of 
$10,000,000,  carrying  out  the  project  under  the  handicaps  of  labor 
scarcity  and  the  severe  winter  that  followed. 

A  variety  of  difficulties  arose  to  prevent  proper  functioning  of 
the  first  recuperators  assembled.  The  work  of  machining  the  forg- 
ings  had  proceeded  favorably  until  the  final  operation.  This  con- 
sisted of  polishing  the  interior  of  the  long  cylinder  to  a  mirror  like 
glaze  and  still  retaining  the  extreme  accuracy  necessary  to  prevent 
leakage  of  oil  past  the  piston.  Several  weeks  elapsed  before  this 
operation  could  be  perfected.  Then  changes  in  the  quality  of  the 
oil  were  found  necessary.  The  primary  difficulty  of  the  whole 
undertaking  was  due  to  the  fact  that  we  were  using  French  draw- 
ings and  technical  devices  with  American  shop  methods.  French 
shop  practice  may  vary  much  from  the  drawings,  relying  on  "hand 
fitting"  instead  of  working  within  "tolerances"  on  measurements 
as  is  generally  done  in  American  shops.  Thus  we  have  the  explana- 
tion of  how  the  last  and  most  persistent  obstacle  was  overcome  by 
a  slight  alteration  in  two  small  parts  of  the  recuperator.  These  had 
been  produced  according  to  drawing,  but  evidently  in  their  pro- 
duction the  French  tended  to  closer  hand  fitting.

By  undaunted  perseverance  production  was  finally  gotten  under 
way  and  recuperators  that  duplicated  the  perfect  functioning  of 
the  French  product  were  being  turned  out  at  the  rate  of  16  a  day 
by  November,  1918.  Of  the  3,714  recuperators  ordered,  854  had 
been  finished  when  the  armistice  was  signed,  and  this  number  was 
increased  to  1,238  a  month  later. 

Meanwhile  production  of  the  howitzer  gun  bodies  had  pro- 
ceeded so  favorably  that  it  was  possible  to  sell  550  to  the  French 
government  in  September,  1918,  a  total  of  1,172  having  been  com- 
pleted when  the  armistice  was  signed.  The  howitzer  carriage  pro- 
ject had  reached  a  total  production  of  154  and  the  rate  of  increase 
would  have  placed  this  total  at  230  a  month  later.  Of  the  2,575  car- 
riage limbers  ordered,  273  had  been  completed  when  hostilities 
ceased. 

Although  this  great  project  was  pushed  forward  as  rapidly  as 
possible,  hostilities  came  to  an  end  before  any  of  the  155-millimeter 
howitzers  built  in  this  country  could  be  packed  and  shipped  over- 
seas. The  first  regiment  to  be  equipped  with  this  weapon,  however, 
was  ready  to  embark  and  the  guns  were  awaiting  shipment  at  the 
dock  when  the  fighting  ceased.  Deliveries  on  early  orders  placed 
with  the  French  for  the  155  howitzer  totaled  821  up  to  the  signing 
of  the  armistice. 

THE  155-MILLIMETER  GUN. 

The  story  of  the  reproduction  in  America  of  this  French  weapon 
runs  for  the  most  part  parallel  to  the  history  of  our  155  howitzer 
project. 

Being  of  the  "gun"  design,  this  weapon  has  a  longer  cannon  body 
than  its  howitzer  brother  and  thus  achieves  the  exceedingly  high 
muzzle  velocity  of  2,400  feet  per  second  with  a  95-pound  projectile 
which  it  hurls  considerably  more  than  ten  miles.  Its  chief  ad- 
vantages lie  in  its  wide  range  of  usefulness  combined  with  its  ex- 
tremely simple  and  rugged  design.  To  absorb  the  rolling  shock  of 
the  eight  tons  of  steel  amassed  in  this  unit  the  mount  is  spring  sup- 


[65] 


We  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


ported,  and  the  wheels  are  equipped  with  a  double  tread  of  solid 
rubber  tires.  By  an  ingenious  arrangement  it  is  also  possible  in  a 
few  minutes  to  attach  a  caterpillar  tread  to  the  wheels  whenever 
soft  ground  is  encountered.  A  large  clearance  for  recoil  at  high 
elevations  of  fire  and  also  a  wide  angle  of  traverse  in  directing  fire 
are  made  possible  by  the  split  trail  design.  The  weapon  is  equipped 
with  a  hydropneumatic  recoil  system  so  arranged  that  the  gun 
body  slides  directly  in  the  recuperator  forging  during  recoil.  A  low 
center  of  gravity  is  obtained  by  small  diameter  wheels  and  a 
trunnioned  "cradle"  which  reduces  considerably  the  height  of  the 
cannon. 

While  recuperators  for  the  155  gun  were  ordered  from  Dodge 
Bros.,  their  special  plant  having  been  built  to  house  this  as  well  as 
the  howitzer  recuperator  work,  the  project  was  made  secondary  to 
that  of  the  howitzer  and  work  was  not  commenced  on  it  until  April, 
1918.  Much  difficulty  was  encountered  in  machining  the  first  forg- 
ings.  Even  with  this  overcome,  it  was  impossible  to  complete  a 
recuperator  under  normal  conditions  in  less  than  three  months  from 
the  time  the  forging  came  into  the  machine  shop.  The  first  re- 
cuperator was  delivered  in  October,  1918.  A  total  of  110  rough 
machined  recuperator  forgings  were  shipped  to  France,  however, 
to  be  finished  there  and  made  available  for  units  shipped  from  the 
United  States  without  recuperators. 

The  carriage  of  this  gun  was  very  much  simpler  to  construct 
than  the  howitzer  carriage.  It  consisted  principally  of  two  large 
steel  castings  as  contrasted  with  the  multiplicity  of  parts  called  for 
in  the  howitzer  carriage.  An  order  for  1,446  carriages  and  the 
same  number  of  limbers  was  placed  in  November,  1917,  and  the 
first  carriage  was  delivered  in  August,  1918.  By  the  last  week  in 
October  production  had  increased  to  the  rate  of  7  a  day. 

Design  of  the  cannon  or  gun  body  of  this  unit  is  complicated  by 
the  necessity  of  providing  resistance  to  the  high  velocity  of  its 
shell  fire.  The  long  body  is  built  up  of  a  number  of  jackets  and 
hoops  to  secure  this  strength.    Its  production,  therefore,  involved 


[66] 


*®e  Storjr  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


more  than  the  forging  and  machining  of  a  single  heavy  piece. 
Orders  for  the  cannon  were  placed  in  November,  1917,  and  were 
divided  between  the  Bullard  Engineering  Works,  at  Bridgeport, 
Conn.,  and  the  Watervliet  Arsenal.  A  total  of  2,160  cannon  were 
ordered.  The  Bullard  Engineering  Works  had  first  to  construct 
an  entirely  new  plant  and  assemble  and  set  up  all  necessary  equip- 
ment, while  the  arsenal  had  to  extend  its  shops  and  also  secure 
much  new  equipment.  The  project  was  an  enormous  one,  but  de- 
liveries from  the  arsenal  began  in  July  and  during  the  single  month 
of  October  a  total  of  50  gun  bodies  were  completed  there  and  at 
the  Bullard  Works.  Early  in  1919,  with  the  latter  company  com- 
ing into  heavy  production,  it  is  certain  that  deliveries  would  have 
reached  eight  per  day. 

We  gain  some  conception  of  the  magnitude  of  such  a  project  as 
the  production  of  this  155  gun  when  we  consider  that,  exclusive  of 
all  cannon  parts,  a  total  of  416  drawings  and  tracings  were  re- 
quired to  carry  out  the  translation  of  the  original  French  drawings 
into  our  units  of  measurement.  Despite  the  enormous  difficulty  at 
that  time  of  securing  competent  draftsmen,  all  of  these  drawings 
were  completed  in  a  few  weeks,  which  may,  indeed,  in  itself  be 
ranked  as  an  extraordinary  achievement. 

When  the  armistice  was  signed,  368  carriages  and  370  limbers 
and  71  gun  bodies  for  this  unit  had  been  actually  completed.  Six- 
teen combinations  of  these  parts  had  been  floated  for  overseas  to  be 
matched  with  the  recuperators  which  we  had  sent  to  France  for 
machining,  and  the  balance  were  packed  for  overseas  shipment. 
Had  hostilities  not  been  brought  to  an  end  in  November  our  own 
recuperator  project  for  this  gun  would  have  been  in  a  short  time 
brought  up  to  match  the  output  of  carriages  and  gun  bodies,  to 
make  us  entirely  independent  of  French  shops  in  producing  the  155 
millimeter  gun.  The  Dodge  plant  was  expected  to  develop  a  max- 
imum production  capacity  of  ten  recuperators  a  day.  With  the 
company's  original  order  reduced  to  880  recuperators    after    the

V

signing  of  the  armistice,  all  of  this  number  had  been  completed  by 
May  1,  1919. 

THE  BRITISH  HOWITZERS. 

Overflow  of  British  orders  to  American  plants  for  the  British  8- 
inch  and  9.2-inch  howitzer  designs  had  developed  ready  capacity  in 
this  country  for  the  production  of  field  weapons  of  the  larger  size 
which  the  Ordnance  Department  at  once  took  advantage  of  upon 
our  entrance  into  the  war.  This  8-inch  howitzer  had  been  designed 
by  the  British  in  the  early  days  of  the  war  and  had  proved  its  fight- 
ing qualities  on  the  battlefield.  Just  eight  days  after  our  declara- 
tion of  war  with  Germany,  April  14,  1917,  we  ordered  80  of  these  8- 
inch  units  from  the  Midvale  Steel  &  Ordnance  Co.,  at  Nicetown, 
Pa.,  the  concern  that  was  manufacturing  them  under  British  con- 
tract at  that  time.  It  was  understood  that  production  on  our  order 
would  begin  upon  completion  of  the  British  order.  Production  pro- 
ceeded so  favorably  that  the  first  completed  unit  was  proof -fired  on 
December  13,  1917,  with  excellent  results,  and  by  May,  1918  pro- 
duction had  increased  to  six  per  week.  Under  a  subsequent  con- 
tract the  total  order  for  this  unit  was  increased  to  195,  of  which  146 
were  completed  and  accepted  to  November  14,  1918;  96  being 
shipped  overseas. 

To  keep  up  with  the  stride  of  artillery  development  during  the 
war,  it  was  found  advisable  to  design  an  8-inch  howitzer  with 
longer  range  than  the  first  unit  produced  by  the  Midvale  Co. 
When  this  design  was  brought  out  it  proved  a  range  of  nearly 
13,000  yards,  or  about  2,000  yards  greater  than  that  of  the  first 
8-inch  design.  This  second  design  was  known  as  the  Mark  VIII- 
1/2  and  the  first  as  the  Mark  VI.  An  order  for  100  of  the  new  type 
was  placed  with  the  Midvale  Co.  on  October  2,  1918,  carrying 
specifications  also  for  a  new  and  heavier  type  of  carriage. 

The  Bethlehem  Steel  Company  was  working  on  a  contract  with 
the  British  government  for  the  British  9.2-inch  howitzer  when  we 
entered  the  war.    The  company  expected  to  complete  the  orders  by 


[68]

July,  1917.  Here  also  was  established  capacity  for  early  heavy  gun 
production  and  the  Ordnance  Department  took  advantage  of  it 
by  placing  an  order  with  the  Bethlehem  company  for  100  of  the 
9.2-inch  howitzers  calling  for  British  specifications  throughout.  At 
the  same  time  we  placed  orders  for  132  of  these  units  in  England, 
British  production  of  medium  and  heavy  guns  having  become  so 
well  established  at  that  time  that  it  was  possible  for  them  to  under- 
take to  contribute  to  the  equipment  of  our  first  divisions.  The 
Bethlehem  company  was  unable  to  reach  production  on  our  order 
but  the  British  concerns  delivered  40  howitzers  before  the  armistice 
was  signed. 

But  in  the  general  scheme  laid  out  for  equipping  our  divisions 
with  heavy  howitzers,  orders  for  both  the  8-inch  and  the  9.2-inch 
design  were  placed  merely  because  established  facilities  insured 
early  deliveries.  Our  goal  was  quantity  production  on  the  French 
240-millimeter  howitzer  design,  the  project  that  we  will  next  re- 
view, and  production  of  the  other  designs  was  from  the  beginning 
subordinated  to  our  preparations  for  turning  out  the  French 
weapon. 

THE  240-mm.  HOWITZER  PROJECT 
Recognizing  that  production  of  this  enormous  weapon  on  the 
scale  contemplated  would  tax  our  already  over-burdened  industrial 
capacity  to  the  limit  and  that  early  quantity  production  therefore 
was  out  of  the  question,  deliveries  in  the  240-millimeter  howitzer 
program  were  aimed  entirely  at  the  year  1919.  The  British 
howitzer  designs,  with  ready  facilities  for  their  production,  had 
been  turned  to  to  fill  in  the  gap  before  the  tremendous  task  of  trans- 
planting the  manufacture  of  the  French  weapon  to  this  country 
could  be  pushed  to  the  point  of  deliveries. 

The  240  howitzer  is  only  a  fraction  of  an  inch  larger  in  bore 
than  the  British  9.2  howitzer,  measuring  almost  exactly  9.5  inches. 
Yet,  against  the  latter  weapon's  range  of  about  6  miles  with  a  290- 
pound  shell,  the  French  design  hurls  a  356-pound  shell,  carrying  a 


[69] 


*®e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


high  explosive  bursting  charge  of  50  pounds,  a  distance  of  nearly 
ten  miles.  The  British  design  was  an  effective  weapon,  however, 
and  should  not  be  discredited  by  comparison  with  this  superlative 
product  of  French  gun  science. 

It  was  planned  that  our  entire  second  army  of  30  divisions 
should  be  equipped  with  240  howitzers,  based  on  the  rate  of  in- 
crease in  our  overseas  forces  contemplated  during  the  first  few 
months  of  our  participation  in  the  war.  In  the  summer  of  1917  the 
French  and  British  Governments  had  advised  us  that  they  would  be 
able  to  equip  our  first  30  combat  divisions  in  1918  with  heavy 
howitzers.  With  this  source  to  supplement  our  British  howitzer 
orders  here,  therefore,  it  was  anticipated  that  quantity  production 
of  the  240  howitzer  beginning  in  the  early  spring  of  1919  would  be 
well  timed  to  meet  requirements.  And  by  surplus  production  in 
1919  it  was  planned  to  replace  all  losses  in  the  8-inch  and  9.2-inch 
designs  with  the  240  howitzer. 

As  we  adapted  the  240-millimeter  howitzer  from  the  French 
Schneider  model,  it  was  composed  of  four  major  parts — the  how- 
itzer barrel,  the  top  carriage,  the  cradle  with  recoil  mechanism,  and 
the  firing  platform.  We  may  glean  some  idea  of  the  immensity  of 
this  project  from  the  fact  that  it  was  necessary  to  provide  each 
of  these  parts  with  its  own  transport  wagon  and  limber  and  a  ten- 
ton  tractor  for  motive  power.  The  weapon  was  set  up  for  action 
by  means  of  a  complete  erecting  frame  and  small  crane,  the  firing 
platform  being  first  placed  on  the  ground,  the  top  carriage  imposed 
on  that,  this  bearing  the  cradle  with  recoil  mechanism,  and  finally 
the  howitzer  barrel  itself  was  set  in  place. 

Each  of  these  major  sections,  of  course,  was  composed  of  a  mul- 
tiplicity of  smaller  parts,  requiring  in  their  production  exacting 
grades  of  iron,  steel  and  other  metals  as  well  as  the  most  precise 
machining,  and  having  to  pass  rigid  tests  for  strength  and  dimen- 
sion. 

Indeed,  the  production  of  one  of  these  monstrous  weapons 
would,  in  pre-war  days,  have  been  considered  a  difficult  undertak-

way artillery  program,  finding  available  464  big 
guns,  completed  or  under  manufacture,  which 
came  from  the  coast  defense  and  from  the  Navy. 
Ordnance  had  to  design  and  produce  the  gun  cars 
and  mounts,  and  complete  armament  trains. 
Despite  delays  incident  to  slow  deliveries  of  mate- 
rial, labor  shortage,  etc.,  eighteen  complete  units 
had  been  turned  out  when  the  armistice  was 
signed  and — of  even  more  importance — the  plants 
had  developed  a  capacity  of  fifteen  units  per 
month.  Three  complete  units  had  been  shipped 
overseas.  No  part  of  the  Ordnance  program 
shows  more  clearly  the  potential  military  strength 
America  possesses  in  industrial  genius  and 
capacity,  or  more  strikingly  the  need  of  a  degree 
of  industrial  preparedness  to  mobilize  that 
strength  at  the  fighting  front  in  due  time.

ing  for  any  industrial  plant.  The  difficulty  and  complexities 
involved  in  the  manufacture  of  more  than  1,200  of  them,  under  the 
pressure  of  limited  time  and  the  manifold  handicaps  of  the  in- 
dustrial and  transportation  conditions  then  prevailing  will  be 
manifest. 

The  240-howitzer  project  actually  got  under  way  on  September 
1,  1917,  when  an  order  was  placed  with  the  Watertown  Arsenal  for 
250  carriages  complete  with  recoil  mechanism,  transport  vehicles, 
tools  and  accessories.  Although  this  only  opened  the  program,  an 
allotment  of  $17,500,000  was  necessary  to  cover  the  estimated  cost 
of  the  order.  Despite  the  elaborate  equipment  of  this  arsenal  at 
the  time  for  the  production  of  heavy  gun  carriages,  it  was  neces- 
sary to  build  an  entirely  new  erecting  shop  with  a  capacity  equal 
to  that  of  all  the  old  buildings  combined.  The  force  of  mechanics 
was  increased  from  1,200  to  over  3,000  in  several  months. 

To  obtain  the  extensive  equipment  of  heavy  machine  tools  re- 
quired it  was  necessary  to  comb  the  entire  country;  experts  were 
sent  out  to  locate  and  procure  them  wherever  available.  Great  dif- 
ficulty and  delay  also  developed  in  obtaining  delivery  of  taps,  dies 
and  all  necessary  fixtures.  Raw  material  deliveries  always  fell  be- 
hind schedule,  for  even  after  they  were  produced  and  shipped  there 
were  endless  transportation  delays. 

But  despite  all  obstacles,  work  on  the  original  carriage  order  was 
pushed  unremittingly  and  the  pilot  carriage  of  the  project  was  de- 
livered in  October,  1918.  Some  two  months  after  this  first  carriage 
order  was  placed  with  the  arsenal,  the  Standard  Steel  Car  Company 
agreed  to  accept  an  order  for  1044  carriages,  complete  with  trans- 
port vehicles,  limbers,  etc.,  but  without  the  recoil  mechanism.  Al- 
though as  one  of  the  most  important  freight  and  passenger  car 
builders  in  the  country  this  company  possessed  an  extensive  and 
well  equipped  plant,  it  was  nevertheless  necessary  practically  to 
double  the  capacity  of  its  huge  erecting  shop  by  the  construction  of 
additional  buildings  and  greatly  to  increase  other  plant  facilities  to 
make  ready  for  the  tremendous  task  undertaken. 


[74]

To  expedite  production  sub-contracts  for  many  of  the  smaller 
component  parts  were  immediately  placed  by  the  Standard  com- 
pany with  more  than  100  firms  through  the  east  and  middle  west. 
As  many  of  these  firms  were  already  working  on  sub-contracts  for 
the  Watertown  Arsenal  carriage  order,  their  utilization  on  the 
order  with  the  Standard  company  meant  better  prices  and  closer 
standardization  of  parts.  Subsequent  placing  of  orders  by  these 
sub-contractors  with  manufacturers  of  raw  and  finished  materials 
meant  that  the  ramifications  of  this  240  carriage  project  soon  had 
extended  throughout  the  entire  industrial  fabric  of  the  eastern  and 
central  states.  This  tremendous  outlay  obviously  multiplied 
enormously  the  effect  of  delay  and  uncertainties  in  transportation, 
of  fuel  shortage  and  the  other  handicaps  under  which  the  project 
labored.  Raw  materials  could  in  most  instances  be  obtained  only 
through  allocation  by  the  War  Industries  Board  and  the  granting 
of  priority  orders  on  the  manufacturers  of  these  materials,  who 
were  over-loaded  with  other  government  orders  of  varying  impor- 
tance. Notwithstanding  all  handicaps,  however,  work  was  forced 
ahead  and  the  deliveries  contemplated  for  1919  were  in  sight  when 
the  armistice  was  signed. 

Construction  of  the  240  howitzer  recuperators  to  match  the  car- 
riages to  be  turned  out  by  the  Standard  Steel  Car  Company  was 
undertaken  by  the  Otis  Elevator  Company.  To  carry  out  a  con- 
tract for  1,039  recuperators  accepted  on  May  1,  1918,  this  company 
had  to  completely  rebuild  and  equip  a  plant  which  it  already  owned 
in  Chicago.  Forgings  for  the  recuperators  were  furnished  by  the 
Carnegie  Steel  Company  which  completed  the  rough-machining  be- 
fore shipment  to  the  Otis  Elevator  Company.  The  first  recuperator 
was  finished  by  the  latter  company  early  in  November,  1918,  a  little 
more  than  six  months  after  the  order  was  placed. 

Another  independent  order  for  recuperators  to  keep  pace  with 
the  carriage  capacity  to  be  developed  by  the  Standard  Steel  Car 
Company  was  placed  with  the  Watertown  Arsenal  in  the  summer 
of  1918.    This  order  called  for  250  recuperators  in  addition  to  those

&e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


which  the  arsenal  had  already  been  called  upon  to  deliver  in  its 
original  carriage  contract.  Much  new  equipment  had  to  be  secured 
to  take  care  of  this  order,  but  production  was  gotten  under  way 
rapidly.  The  arsenal  furnished  most  of  its  own  recuperator  forg- 
ings  but  an  additional  supply  came  from  the  Carnegie  Steel  Com- 
pany. Recuperators  actually  completed  at  the  arsenal  numbered 
16  by  December  31,  1918,  and  280  forgings  were  in  process  of  ma- 
chining. 

With  both  the  arsenal  and  the  Otis  Elevator  Company  thus 
rapidly  coming  into  quantity  production  on  recuperators  there  was 
no  danger  of  the  1919  program  for  240  howitzer  deliveries  being 
held  up  by  a  lack  of  this  mechanism. 

The  massive  gun  bodies  for  the  240  howitzer  were  placed  in  pro- 
duction at  the  Watervliet  Arsenal,  that  is,  they  were  ordered  ma- 
chined and  completed  there.  Orders  for  rough  forgings  to  be 
shipped  to  the  arsenal  were  distributed  between  five  or  six  plants. 
From  November  20,  1917,  to  November  7,  1918,  a  total  of  1,160  gun 
bodies  were  ordered  completed  at  Watervliet.  Construction  of  an 
entirely  new  machining  plant  was  necessary  to  carry  out  the  work 
and  allotments  to  the  arsenal  during  the  war  for  increasing  its 
facilities  totaled  nearly  $14,000,000.  The  arsenal  undertook  to  de- 
velop a  maximum  capacity  of  100  cannon  a  month  and  to  deliver 
the  last  of  the  1,160  not  later  than  September  30,  1919. 

Gun  bodies  actually  completed  up  to  December  12,  1918, 
totalled  158,  the  pilot  cannon  having  been  delivered  in  August, 
1918. 

Thus,  by  December,  1918,  it  is  seen  that  production  in  all  parts 
of  the  240-millimeter  howitzer  had  been  placed  squarely  upon  its 
feet  and  promised  rapid  increase  in  deliveries.  Had  the  war  con- 
tinued, by  the  spring  of  1919,  many  of  our  overseas  divisions  would 
have  been  equipped  with  this  splendid  weapon  produced  wholly  in 
American  plants.  It  was  planned  to  develop  a  capacity  of  80  units 
a  month  in  the  early  part  of  1919.

ANTIAIRCRAFT  GUNS. 

Before  we  mount  into  the  larger  size  field  guns,  let  us  survey 
briefly  our  preparation  in  the  line  of  antiaircraft  guns,  which  also 
were  of  7  5 -millimeter  size. 

We  had  before  1916  developed  a  3-inch  antiaircraft  unit  for 
fixed  emplacement  at  coast  fortifications  which  is  still  today  the 
most  powerful  antiaircraft  weapon  of  its  caliber.  But  we  had  given 
little  or  no  attention  to  mobile  artillery  of  this  sort.  To  meet  the 
necessity  of  early  production  when  we  entered  the  war,  therefore, 
an  improvised  mobile  unit  was  turned  out.  This  consisted  of  a  sim- 
ple structural  steel  design  upon  which  was  mounted  one  of  the  75- 
millimeter  guns  already  in  production.  Fifty  of  these  carriages 
were  manufactured  and  shipped  to  France  and  guns  which  the 
French  were  turning  out  for  us  were  mounted  upon  them  there.  In 
mobility  this  unit,  it  was  recognized  from  the  beginning,  left  much 
to  be  desired.  Its  steel  carriage  design,  therefore,  was  superseded 
by  a  truck  mount,  orders  for  which  were  placed  in  July,  1917. 
Upon  this  mount  was  placed  our  own  75-millimeter  field  gun, 
model  of  1916. 

It  was  intended  throughout,  however,  that  this  preliminary  pro- 
gram should  give  way  to  the  production  of  a  specially  designed 
antiaircraft  unit  with  a  powerful  3-inch  gun.  It  was  recognized 
that  the  75-millimeter  field  guns  which  made  up  these  original  units 
did  not  have  sufficient  power.  They  were  used  because  they  were 
quickly  available  and  because  the  French  had  pressed  them  into 
the  same  service.  This  improved  3-inch  gun  was  just  coming  into 
production  when  the  armistice  was  signed,  orders  for  612  having 
been  placed  in  July,  1917.  Had  the  war  continued,  our  divisions 
would  have  been  equipped  with  a  splendid  antiaircraft  weapon.  As 
it  was,  the  antiaircraft  material  in  use  by  our  forces  when  hostilities 
ceased  was  all  supplied  by  the  French  with  the  exception  of  about 
68  of  our  first  75-millimeter  units.

MOUNTING  THE  COAST  AND  NAVAL  GUNS. 

In  the  5  and  6-inch  guns  that  could  be  spared  from  the  Coast 
Artillery  and  the  reserve  store  of  the  Navy  there  was  shell  power 
that  might  quickly  be  made  available  for  the  western  front.  When 
we  entered  the  war  the  Ordnance  Department  at  once  set  out  to 
master  the  problem  of  placing  these  heavy  fixed-emplacement 
pieces  on  mobile  field  mounts. 

An  inventory  showed  that  ninety-five  6-inch  and  twenty-eight 
5-inch  guns  could  be  secured  from  the  Coast  Artillery  and  forty-six 
6-inch  guns  from  the  Navy,  while  an  additional  30  guns  of  the 
6-inch  size  were  offered  by  a  private  dealer  in  this  country.  Minor 
alterations  were  necessary  in  many  of  the  guns  to  make  them 
adaptable  to  field  mounts,  and  the  navy  guns,  ranging  from  30  to 
50  calibers  in  length,  had  to  be  cut  down  to  a  uniform  length  of  30 
calibers.  The  long  6-inch  seacoast  guns  were  not  shortened  be- 
cause it  was  planned  to  return  them  to  the  coast  defenses  from 
which  they  were  taken. 

Speed  in  the  manufacture  of  the  carriages  for  these  guns  de- 
manded that  they  be  of  the  simplest  design  consistent  with  the 
great  strength  necessary  to  bear  the  weight  of  this  fixed-emplace- 
ment material.  The  carriage  design  for  the  5  and  6-inch  naval  guns 
having  been  placed  under  test  and  found  to  meet  all  requirements 
by  September,  1917,  orders  were  placed  for  ninety-two  6-inch  car- 
riages and  twenty-eight  5-inch.  Owing  to  the  great  weight  of  the 
long  6-inch  seacoast  guns,  however,  it  was  found  that  it  would  be 
necessary  to  carry  them  separately  on  big  transport  wagons.  Such 
a  wagon  was  designed  and  an  order  placed  for  55  in  February,  1918. 

When  the  armistice  was  signed  practically  all  of  these  mounts 
had  been  completed.  Seventy-two  entirely  assembled  6-inch  units 
and  twenty-six  5-inch  had  been  floated  for  overseas. 

RAILWAY  ARTILLERY  PROJECTS. 

Railway  artillery  forms  another  chapter  in  the  history  of  our 
War-time  Ordnance  preparation.    An  inventory  taken  by  the  Ord-

nance  Department  as  soon  as  war  was  declared  against  Germany 
showed  some  464  big  guns  available  for  mobilization  on  the  west- 
ern front.  These  ranged  in  size  from  the  8-inch  rifle  to  the  single 
16-inch  experimental  howitzer  which  the  Ordnance  Department 
had  produced  prior  to  1917.  In  the  number  were  included  guns 
which  could  be  spared  from  the  coast  defense  as  follows:  ninety- 
six  8-inch,  one  hundred  twenty-nine  10-inch,  forty-nine  12-inch,  and 
one  hundred  fifty  12-inch  mortars.  The  Navy  offered  to  turn  over 
twelve  of  its  7-inch  guns;  and  in  addition  six  12-inch,  50  calibre, 
rifles  were  commandeered  from  a  private  concern  where  they  were 
under  manufacture  for  the  Chilean  government. 

Here  was  an  assortment  of  guns  that  offered  splendid  op- 
portunity for  equipment  in  heavy  artillery.  The  Ordnance  De- 
partment determined  that  railway  mounts  offered  the  only  means 
of  providing  the  required  mobility  for  this  heavy  fixed  emplace- 
ment materiel  and  at  once  undertook  the  production  of  such 
mounts. 

The  use  of  heavy  railway  artillery  had  been  developed  to  a  high 
degree  during  the  war  before  our  participation.  It  had  come  to 
be  almost  as  varied  in  design  as  field  artillery  and  each  type  of 
mount  had  certain  distinct  tactical  uses.  Guns,  howitzers  and 
mortars  were  all  adapted  to  railway  mounts.  These  mounts  were 
of  three  general  types,  the  first  permitting  a  360-degree  gun 
traverse,  or  all-around  fire,  the  second  providing  limited  traverse, 
and  the  third  providing  no  lateral  movement  for  the  gun,  the 
traverse  aim  being  secured  by  means  of  shifting  the  position  of  the 
railway  car  on  a  curved  track,  or  epis. 

The  railway  mount  with  the  360  degree  traverse  was  used  for 
the  7-  and  8-inch  weapons  and  also  the  12-inch  mortars.  This  gun 
carriage  revolves  on  an  axis  and  turns  the  gun  with  it.  The  recoil 
in  this  mount  is  absorbed  by  a  recoil  system  similar  to  that  used 
with  field  guns.  Mounts  permitting  a  limited  traverse  movement 
of  the  accord  type  were  used  for  guns  and  howitzers  of  great  range. 
It  is  necessary  to  shift  the  car  upon  which  this  carriage  is  mounted 


[79] 


*®e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


on  a  curved  track,  or  epis,  when  wide  traverse  movement  is  required 
for  aiming  the  gun.  Only  part  of  the  recoil  shock  is  absorbed  in 
the  recoil  system  of  the  carriage,  much  of  it  being  transmitted  to 
the  gun  car  itself,  which  necessitates  the  car  being  bolted  to  the 
track  and  braced  from  the  ground.  In  the  third  mount,  known  as 
the  Schneider  type,  also  used  for  the  heaviest  guns,  the  gun  trun- 
nion and  mount  are  fastened  rigidly  together.  Thus  with  no 
traverse  movement  provided  it  is  necessary  to  depend  entirely  upon 
movement  of  the  car  on  a  curved  track  to  secure  traverse  aim.  The 
carriage,  of  course,  provides  elevation  for  the  gun.  The  entire  re- 
coil in  this  type  is  absorbed  by  a  retrograde  movement  of  the  car 
along  the  track,  the  heaviest  guns  driving  the  car  twenty  or  thirty 
feet  back  after  fire. 

The  first  railway  mount  project  of  the  Ordnance  Department 
was  undertaken  as  a  measure  of  defense  against  possible  attempts 
by  German  submarines  to  raid  our  coast.  The  twelve  7-inch  guns 
turned  over  by  the  navy  were  mounted  for  this  purpose.  A  special 
pedestal  mount  was  designed,  giving  the  gun  a  360-degree  traverse. 
This  gun  was  mounted  on  one  of  three  standard  types  of  railway 
artillery  cars  designed  by  the  Ordnance  Department  for  the  7- 
and  8-inch  guns  and  the  12-inch  mortars,  the  three  types  having 
the  same  general  features. 

Taking  the  projects  in  the  scale  of  gun  sizes,  for  the  8-inch 
coast  defense  guns  the  first  type  of  mount  was  adopted.  Orders 
for  47  gun  cars  and  mounts  were  placed  with  three  concerns,  two 
of  which  had  materially  to  expand  their  shop  facilities  before  begin- 
ning work.  The  prevalent  condition  of  congested  railroads  and 
depleted  raw  material  markets  proved  a  serious  handicap  to  getting 
production  under  way.  But  by  June,  1918,  the  first  eight-inch  rail- 
way mount  had  passed  a  thoroughly  satisfactory  test  at  the  Aber- 
deen Proving  Ground.  When  the  armistice  was  signed  18  com- 
plete units  had  been  turned  out  and  the  contracting  plants  had 
developed  a  capacity  of  15  mounts  per  month.  Three  complete 
units  had  been  shipped  overseas.    These  units  included  ammunition 


[80] 


Six  of  these  huge  12-inch  guns  were  under  manu- 
facture in  the  United  States  for  the  Chilean  gov- 
ernment when  the  United  States  entered  the  war. 
They  were  provided  with  sliding  railway  mounts, 
one  of  which  is  shown  in  this  picture.  The 
mount  is  an  American  design  though  an  adapta- 
tion from  the  French.  The  first  of  these  mounts 
was  completed  within  eighty-five  days  after  the 
order  was  placed  and  all  of  them  were  awaiting 
shipment  to  France  when  the  armistice  was 
signed.  The  mount  has  thirty-six  car  wheels  and 
a  length  of  105  feet,  so  that  the  track  can  stand 
the  tremendous  strain  when  the  gun  is  fired.  The 
range  of  these  guns  is  25  miles,  firing  a  700-pound 
projectile.  As  an  indication  of  the  sound  basis 
of  claims  made  as  to  what  Ordnance  production 
would  have  been  with  the  continuation  of  hos- 
tilities, work  on  mounts  for  these  guns  was  con- 
tinued after  the  armistice  and  45  were  completed 
on  April  7,  1919,  whereas  General  Pershing  had 
requested  only  40  for  the  entire  campaign  of 
that  year.

cars,  transportation  cars,  tools,  spare  parts  and  all  necessary  ap- 
purtenances. It  was  necessary  to  equip  the  gun  cars  of  these  units 
with  narrow-gauge  as  well  as  standard-gauge  trucks  so  they  could 
operate  on  the  narrow-gauge  track  used  in  the  fighting  zone  in 
France. 

An  eight-inch  gun  of  longer  range  than  the  coast  defense  guns 
was  subsequently  designed  with  railway  mount  and  an  order  placed 
for  25  for  use  abroad  in  1920.  When  the  armistice  was  signed  this 
undertaking  was  abandoned. 

Railway  mounts  for  the  ten-inch  coast  guns  were  divided  be- 
tween the  Schneider  and  the  Batignolles  types.  As  a  joint  opera- 
tion with  the  French  government,  we  undertook  to  place  36  of 
these  weapons  on  Schneider  mounts,  the  forging  and  rough  ma- 
chining to  be  done  in  this  country  and  the  finishing  in  the  French 
shops.  Contracts  for  our  part  of  the  project  were  distributed  among 
three  plants.  Gen.  Pershing  had  called  for  the  delivery  of  36  sets  of 
parts  in  France  by  March  2,  1919.  When  the  armistice  was  signed 
8  complete  sets  had  been  produced,  and  there  is  little  doubt  that 
had  the  war  continued  the  36  sets  would  have  been  delivered  by  the 
date  specified. 

The  Batignolles  mount  project  for  the  ten-inch  coast  gun  was 
placed  with  the  Marion  Steam  Shovel  Co.,  which  undertook  to  pro- 
duce 18  of  these  mounts.  Difficulty  in  translating  the  French  draw- 
ings and  in  securing  the  necessary  raw  materials  and  machine 
equipment  entailed  serious  delays  in  this  project  and  the  armistice 
was  signed  before  any  of  the  mounts  were  produced.  The  entire 
project  was  cancelled  shortly  after  the  armistice. 

The  Marion  Steam  Shovel  Company  also  undertook  the  manu- 
facture of  Batignolles  mounts  for  twelve  of  the  12-inch  coast  de- 
fense guns.  This  contract  was  given  preference  over  the  ten-inch 
mounts,  and,  although  none  of  the  twelve-inch  mounts  had  been 
produced  by  November  11,  work  had  progressed  so  far  that  the 
Ordnance  Department  ordered  all  12  completed.  The  first  was  de- 
livered about  April  1,  1919. 


[84] 


"&e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


For  the  twelve-inch  Chilean  naval  guns  the  Ordnance  Depart- 
ment redesigned  the  Schneider  mount  to  facilitate  manufacture  in 
this  country,  as  our  manufacturers  had  experienced  endless  trouble 
in  producing  the  French  designs  because  of  their  entire  lack  of  con- 
formity to  American  shop  practice.  It  was  decided  to  build  three 
mounts  for  these  6  twelve-inch  guns,  holding  one  gun  in  replace- 
ment reserve  for  each  mount.  Although  the  order  for  these 
mounts  was  not  placed  until  the  summer  of  1918,  all  three  had  been 
completed  and  made  ready  for  shipment  to  France  by  November, 
1918,  each  with  its  entire  equipment  of  supplies,  spare  parts,  am- 
munition cars,  etc. 

Of  the  150  twelve-inch  mortars  which  it  was  believed  could  be 
safely  withdrawn  from  the  coast  defenses,  contracts  were  let  for 
the  mounting  of  96,  General  Pershing  having  asked  that  40  be  de- 
livered in  France  in  time  for  the  contemplated  1919  campaign. 
Provided  with  railway  mounts,  it  was  seen  that  these  mortars 
would  provide  an  excellent  weapon  for  short,  plunging  fire. 

The  project  of  mounting  these  weapons  proved  one  of  the  larg- 
est of  the  entire  artillery  program.  The  Morgan  Engineering  Co., 
of  Alliance,  O.,  which  undertook  to  build  the  cars  and  the  barbette 
carriage  mounts  upon  which  the  mortars  were  placed,  had  to  erect 
a  complete  plant  at  a  cost  of  $1,700,000  for  the  building  alone. 
Specially  designed  machine  tools  necessary  to  carry  out  the  work 
cost  the  government  more  than  $1,800,000  additional.  Although 
construction  of  the  plant  was  not  begun  until  December,  1917,  it 
was  entirely  completed  by  June,  1918,  and  the  pilot  mount  had  suc- 
cessfully passed  firing  tests  at  Aberdeen  by  the  end  of  August,  an 
exceedingly  noteworthy  achievement  in  view  of  the  weather  con- 
ditions that  prevailed  that  winter  and  the  manifold  industrial  handi- 
caps encountered.  Every  structural  part  for  all  of  the  91  mounts 
ordered  had  been  completed  when  the  armistice  was  signed.  De- 
spite the  relaxation  which  followed  the  Armistice  the  company  had 
delivered  45  complete  units  by  April  7,  1919,  whereas  Gen.  Persh- 
ing had  requested  only  40  for  the  entire  campaign  of  that  year. 


[85]

These  mortars  as  mounted  were  provided  with  a  hydropneu- 
matic  recuperator  of  far  greater  size  than  any  that  had  hitherto 
been  produced  in  this  country,  and  this  feature  added  immensely 
to  the  project. 

It  was  in  May,  1918,  that  the  Navy  offered  to  turn  over  to  the 
Army  certain  f ourteen-inch  naval  rifles  then  under  construction  and 
of  which  it  was  estimated  30  would  be  completed  by  March,  1919. 
For  these  guns  it  was  planned  to  use  the  redesigned  Schneider  rail- 
way mount  that  had  been  adopted  for  the  twelve-inch  Chilean  gunSo 

Accordingly,  an  order  for  16  of  these  mounts  was  placed  with 
the  Baldwin  Locomotive  Works,  specifying  deliveries  to  begin  by 
February  1,  1919,  and  to  be  completed  by  the  following  April.  The 
signing  of  the  armistice,  however,  led  to  the  abandonment  of  the 
entire  project.  Five  of  these  guns  were  mounted  by  the  Navy  itself 
on  railway  mounts  of  another  design,  to  be  manned  by  naval  per- 
sonnel in  France.  The  Baldwin  Locomotive  Works  constructed  1 1 
of  these  mounts  for  the  Navy  Ordnance  Bureau  and  6  of  them 
were  subsequently  turned  over  to  the  Army. 

Finally,  the  Ordnance  Department  designed  and  built  a  railway 
mount  for  the  huge  sixteen-inch  howitzer  which  had  been  bored 
and  finished  prior  to  1917.  The  design  for  the  mount  was  finished 
on  February  10,  1918,  and  in  order  to  complete  the  project  in  the 
shortest  possible  time  it  was  placed  with  three  manufacturers,  who 
did  a  remarkably  fast  job  in  turning  it  out. 

Whereas  all  previous  railway  mounts  for  guns  of  this  size  had 
been  designed  to  be  braced  from  the  track  when  the  gun  was  set 
in  position  for  firing,  a  great  advantage  was  obtained  by  obviating 
the  necessity  for  this  in  the  sixteen-inch  howitzer  mount.  No  track 
preparation  whatever  was  necessary  to  fire  this  weapon.  The  great 
firing  load,  estimated  at  748,230  pounds,  is  safely  transmitted  to  the 
trucks  of  the  gun  car  through  an  intricate  system  of  equalizer 
springs.  The  recoil  action  is  absorbed  chiefly  by  a  hydraulic  recoil 
cylinder  with  which  the  gun  is  equipped  and  the  balance  is  taken

feet.  This  unit  was  demonstrated  by  exhaustive  tests  to  rank  with 
the  highest  types  of  ordnance  in  use  today.  Orders  for  61  ad- 
ditional 16-inch  howitzers  had  been  placed  prior  to  the  tests  of  the 
pilot  mount  but  were  cancelled  when  the  armistice  was  signed. 

ARTILLERY  AMMUNITION 

In  April,  1917,  there  existed  in  the  country  less  than  780  pieces 
of  heavy  artillery  and  little  more  than  1,000,000  rounds  of  ammuni- 
tion therefor.  No  piece  heavier  than  the  6-inch  gun  had  yet  been 
made  for  mobile  artillery  troops. 

Some  idea  of  the  size  of  the  project  in  hand  may  be  had  from  the 
requirements  table  of  July  1,  1918,  which  called  for  more  than  153,- 
135,000  rounds  during  the  next  18  months,  at  a  cost  of  between  3% 
and  4  billion  dollars. 

The  difficulties  attendant  upon  such  an  undertaking  were 
stupendous.  To  begin  with,  it  was  a  new  industry  as  far  as  the 
larger  calibers  were  concerned,  a  type  of  experimental  work  ordi- 
narily requiring  years  to  develop — which  had  required  years  for 
the  Allies  to  develop — and  calling  for  specially  trained  technical 
experts  and  a  high  type  of  mechanical  labor.  The  few  existing 
shops  in  the  country,  absorbing  all  the  experienced  labor  in  this 
line,  were  already  occupied  with  materiel  for  the  Allies  and  were 
therefore  unavailable.  The  adoption  of  the  French  designs  for 
the  two  most  important  pieces,  the  75  and  155  millimeter,  requested 
by  the  French  and  advisable  for  many  reasons,  necessitated  a  long 
delay  in  obtaining  drawings  and  translating  them  to  American 
standards,  in  modifying  existing  facilities  and  in  learning  foreign 
methods.  At  the  outset,  delay  in  appropriations  proved  a  serious 
handicap  in  placing  contracts  and  getting  preparations  under  way. 
The  shortage  of  raw  material,  the  railway  congestion,  the  desper- 
ate machine-tool  situation,  and  the  labor  problem — all  operated  to 
render  almost  impossible  a  very  difficult  task. 

The  Allies  gloomly  predicted  that  it  would  require  years  even 
to  prepare  for  manufacture  and  that  the  possibility    of    getting 


[87]

quantity  production  under  way  before  the  end  of  the  War  was  out 
of  the  question. 

In  the  face  of  this,  Army  Ordnance  set  to  work  and  trained 
labor,  constructed  53  great  plants,  designed  several  superior  new 
types  of  ammunition,  and  at  the  time  of  the  armistice  was  produc- 
ing it  at  a  rate  that  amazed  the  experts  of  the  Allied  armies.  Not 
knowing  it  could  not  be  done,  we  went  ahead  and  did  it. 

There  is  not  space  here  to  go  into  the  detailed  story  of  each 
calibre.  Briefly,  the  Field  Artillery,  consisting  of  75  m/m  gun  and 
howitzer,  4.7-inch  gun,  5-  and  6-inch  guns,  155  m/m  gun  and 
howitzer,  8-inch  gun  and  the  240  m/m  gun  represent  the  mobile 
type  on  mounts  and  carriages.  Of  this  group  the  75  and  155  m/m 
are  the  most  important. 

Ammunition  for  the  75  m/m  comprises  both  Shrapnel  and  H.  E. 
'  shell.  Later  a  gas  shell  of  this  type  was  developed  and  more  than 
half  a  million  manufactured.  As  certain  facilities  for  Shrapnel 
manufacture  already  existed,  whereas  the  H.  E.  facilities  had  to  be 
newly  created,  the  former  was  considerably  ahead  in  production, 
about  7Vi  million  of  these  being  produced  before  the  armistice  as 
against  a  little  more  than  4  million  of  the  H.  E.  shell.  Compared 
with  the  vast  requirements  on  this  item,  this  is  not  a  favorable 
showing,  but  it  must  be  remembered  that  we  were  attempting  to 
do  in  one  year  what  Germany  and  France  with  regular  military 
establishments  and  ample  appropriations  had  required  many  years 
to  do. 

The  155  m/m  was  an  adaptation  of  the  B  model  of  the  famous 
French  Grand  Puisson  Filloux  ammunition,  a  95-pound  shell  with 
a  range  of  13,000  meters  in  the  howitzer  and  17,500  in  the  gun. 
One  of  the  uses  of  this  ammunition,  with  a  special  time-fuse,  was  as 
an  agent  against  captive  balloons.  In  December  1917,  Army  Ord- 
nance developed  a  new  American  155  m/m  shell  which  had  no 
counterpart  in  French  ammunition.  In  June,  1918,  gas  shell  for 
both  gun  and  Howitzer  were  developed  and  a  little  later,  H.  E. 
shell.    The  difficulties  resulting  from  lack  of  tools,  labor  and  load- 


[88] 


We  Story*  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


ing  facilities  limited  the  production  of  this  shell  to  less  than  a 
million  rounds. 

The  4.7-inch  is  of  interest  as  being  America's  own  development 
and  practically  the  only  shell  used  in  the  War,  which  we  were  in 
any  way  prepared  to  make.  There  were  about  60  of  these  guns 
actually  in  service  at  the  time  of  our  declaration  of  War  and  a  total 
of  165,237  rounds  of  shrapnel  and  193,454  rounds  of  H,  E.  shell  on 
hand.  Frankford  Arsenal,  however,  was  the  only  manufacturer. 
By  November  1918,  five  additional  sources  of  supply  with  a  daily 
production  of  12,800  rounds  had  been  developed  and  a  total  of 
nearly  half  a  million  shells  produced.  Further,  gas  and  smoke  shell 
in  this  caliber  had  been  designed  and  put  into  production,  and 
experimental  work  on  incendiary,  tracer,  lachrymatory,  and  air- 
burst  shell  was  well  along  toward  completion. 

An  intermediate  class  between  the  Field  Artillery  and  the  Sea- 
coast  Artillery  is  composed  of  Howitzer  ammunition,  including  the 
8-inch,  9.2-inch  and  240  m/m  H.  E.  and  gas  shell  and  the  8-inch 
smoke  shell.  This  is  effective  for  use  behind  the  third  line  trenches 
for  destroying  enemy  encumbrances  such  as  barbed  wire,  concrete 
emplacements,  known  among  the  Germans  as  "pill-boxes,"  am- 
munition dumps,  railway  and  supply  depots  and  lines  of  com- 
munication. It  is  shot  at  high  angles  and  falls  almost  vertically  in 
places  that  would  be  overshot  by  shell  from  the  guns.  The  gas 
shell  of  this  type  is  also  far  more  effective  than  that  of  the  smaller 
calibers,  owing  to  its  greater  range  and  quantity.  The  8-inch 
smoke  shell  serves  the  two-fold  purpose  of  determining  the  aim  of 
the  H.  E.  shell  and  of  forming  a  smoke  screen  to  conceal  prepara- 
tions of  our  troops  for  an  attack  or  to  cover  a  retreat.  The  8-inch 
shell  was  the  first  of  the  American  artillery  ammunition  to  get  on 
the  line.  The  240  m/m  is  a  353-pound  projectile  having  a"  range 
of  10  miles.  The  monthly  rate  of  fire  per  gun  calls  for  900  rounds 
of  the  8-inch,  600  rounds  of  9.2-inch  and  450  rounds  of  240  m/m 
shell. 

The  Seacoast  Artillery  ammunition  includes  H.  E.  shell  for  the 


[89] 


*®e  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


5-,  6-,  8-,  10-,  12-,  and  14-inch  Seacoast  guns,  12-inch  for  mortars, 
16-inch  for  howitzers  and  gas  and  smoke  shell  for  the  5-,  6-  and  8- 
inch  seacoast  guns.  This  group  of  guns  and  Howitzers  is  com- 
posed of  heavy  Seacoast  Artillery  mounted  on  mobile  vehicles  such 
as  railway  mounts.  It  is  used  for  attack  upon  heavy  structures 
such  as  depots,  storehouses,  dumps,  railways,  batteries  and  on 
massed  troops,  the  ammunition  having  been  changed  from  the 
armor-piercing  type  originally  employed  with  this  artillery  against 
armored  battleships  to  H.  E.  shell  of  both  the  impact  and  the  timed 
type. 

As  the  use  of  this  as  mobile  artillery  had  never  before  been 
contemplated,  the  facilties  in  1917  were  practically  negligible,  with 
the  exception  of  a  few  small  shops  in  operation  on  British  con- 
tracts.   Enormous  facilities  were  developed. 

The  14-inch  is  probably  the  most  interesting  of  this  group  as 
indicative  of  the  nature  of  high  calibre  ammunition.  It  is  a  1,200- 
pound  projectile  carrying  a  powder-charge  of  490  pounds  of  H.  E. 
and  having  an  extreme  range  of  26  miles.  At  the  highest  point  in 
the  arc  it  describes,  this  shell  is  11  miles  above  the  earth.  Upon 
explosion,  it  digs  a  crater  30  feet  in  diameter  and  25  feet  in  depth. 
It  is  fatal  within  a  radius  of  150  yards,  death  being  caused  by  con- 
cussion alone,  which  is  so  great  as  to  drive  the  eyeballs  back  in  the 
sockets,  crushing  them  against  the  bony  structure  of  the  brain  and 
to  produce  hemorrhages  at  the  ears,  nose  and  mouth.  Beyond  the 
150  yard  area,  the  concussion  may  render  the  victim  blind  and  in- 
sane without  causing  death.  But  like  every  frightful  weapon  of 
warfare,  it  gives  its  own  warning.  Its  approach  is  heralded  by  an 
unearthly  screaming  which  may  be  heard  for  15  seconds  before  it 
strikes,  so  that  there  is  a  chance  of  diving  into  a  shell-hole  or  dug- 
out, or,  in  the  absence  of  such  shelter,  of  falling  flat  on  the  ground 
where  the  concussion  will  not  reach.  The  cost  of  a  single  one  of 
these  shells  is  $600. 

The  16-inch  is  used  in  bombarding  heavy  fortifications.     Its

way mount  which  permits  of  fire  in  any  direction. 
Ninety-six  such  guns  were  removed  from  the 
seacoast  fortifications  and  mounted  on  these  spe- 
cially designed  railway  mounts  by  Ordnance. 
Three  plants  were  devoted  to  the  manufacture  of 
these  mounts,  two  of  them  finding  it  necessary  to 
enlarge  their  facilities  and  machine  tool  equip- 
ment to  undertake  the  work.  The  first  of  these 
mounts  was  completed  in  May,  1918,  and  by  the 
end  of  that  year  twenty-four  complete  units,  with 
ammunition  cars  for  standard  guage  track,  shell 
cars  for  narrow  gauge  track,  transportation  cars, 
tools,  spare  parts,  etc..  had  been  turned  out. 
Three  of  the  units  were  shipped  overseas  before 
the  armistice  was  signed.  The  contracting  plants 
had  developed  a  capacity  of  15  mounts  per  month. 
This  rate  of  production  is  a  more  certain  standard 
of  measurement  for  American  strength  than 
production  as  of  any  given  date.  The  problem 
was  to  continuously  sustain  the  armies.

projectile,  with  a  weight  double  that  of  the  14-inch,  has  only  about 
half  the  range. 

In  conclusion  then,  we  had  done  far  better  with  the  artillery 
ammunition  than  the  Allied  experts  or  the  Germans  had  ever 
dreamed  it  possible  that  we  might  do,  and  facilities  had  reached  a 
point  of  development  which  would  have  meant  utter  annihilation 
for  Germany  in  the  Spring  of  1919,  had  the  War  continued. 

PROPELLANTS  AND  EXPLOSIVES. 

There  is  no  chance  for  bluff  with  Ordnance  materiel.  It  is 
made  for  men  and  issued  to  men  who  have  no  other  insurance  of 
victory,  no  other  safeguard  against  death.  The  dependence  placed 
upon  it  is  too  great  to  allow  it  to  long  enjoy  a  false  reputation. 
When  soldiers  in  battle  express  confidence  in  Ordnance  materiel, 
they  are  backing  their  opinions  with  their  lives  and  their  judge- 
ments must  weigh  with  the  rest  of  us  accordingly. 

When  troops  advance  under  an  artillery  barrage,  a  portion  of 
the  men  are  killed  by  the  fire  of  their  own  artillery.  This  cannot 
be  prevented.  The  protection  given  by  the  barrage  against  the 
enemy's  fire  far  more  than  compensates  this  loss.  In  taking  a  few 
lives,  the  barrage  saves  many  more.  But  the  danger  to  their  own 
men,  causes  commanding  officers  to  exercise  the  greatest  caution  in 
the  direction  of  an  artillery  barrage. 

Studying  this  problem,  British  General  Headquarters  issued  an 
order  that  only  American  powder  should  be  used  in  Britsh  guns 
for  artillery  barrages,  because  of  the  greater  uniformity  and  con- 
sequent less  danger  to  the  troops  advancing  under  protection  of  the 
barrage.  What  higher  tribute  could  be  paid  the  quality  of  this 
product  of  American  Ordnance.  Mention  is  made  of  this  testi- 
monial before  beginning  the  story  of  propellants  and  explosives  be- 
cause so  many  persons  appear  to  think  that  the  problem  in  the 
manufacture  of  powder  and  explosives  is  almost  entirely  one  of 
quantity  production  and  not  of  quality. 

The  Allies,  or  rather  their  demands  during  three  years  of  war, 


[94] 


We  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


developed  somewhat  the  manufacture  of  propellants  and  explosives 
in  the  United  States  before  our  entrance  into  the  war.  We  have 
seen,  in  the  case  of  small  arms  and  in  a  few  other  instances,  that  this 
was  of  advantage  to  the  Ordnance  Department.  But  not  so  in  the 
case  of  propellants  and  explosives.  Rather  did  it  add  to  the  dif- 
ficulties of  the  situation.  In  April,  1917,  American  explosives  man- 
ufacturers were  crowded  with  orders  from  the  Allies.  They  were 
producing  greater  quantities  than  they  thought  could  be  produced. 
Plants  had  been  enlarged  and  new  ones  built.  The  technical  ability 
of  the  operating  organizations  of  explosives  manufacturers  had 
been  spread  very  thinly  over  a  much  inflated  war  industry.  Yet 
none  of  these  manufacturing  resources  was  available  for  the  use 
of  the  United  States  Army.  In  the  case  of  small  arms,  the  Amer- 
ican manufacturers  were  just  completing  their  European  orders, 
with  no  new  orders  in  sight,  as  we  entered  the  war.  But  with  ex- 
plosives, the  needs  of  the  Allies  were  continuing  and  were  increas- 
ing, not  diminishing. 

To  prevent  that  which  we  were  so  often  told  the  enemy  hoped 
to  achieve,  namely  the  disruption  of  the  Allies  supply  system  by 
having  the  United  States  Army  commandeer  sources  of  supply  in 
the  United  States  vital  to  the  Allies,  it  was  necessary  for  the  Ord- 
nance Department  to  go  outside  and  provide  new  sources  of  supply. 
In  all  some  53  plants  at  an  estimated  cost  of  $360,000,000  were 
begun  by  the  Ordnance  Department  to  supply  explosives.  A  large 
part  of  this  construction  was  completed  and  was  in  a  suprisingly 
efficient  state  of  operation  by  November  11,  1918. 

The  first  task  of  the  Ordnance  Department  was  to  increase  the 
supply  of  raw  materials  entering  into  the  manufacture  of  ex- 
plosives— sulphuric  and  nitric  acid,  phenol,  caustic  soda,  and  toluol, 
the  basic  raw  material  from  which  TNT  is  made.  In  the  case  of 
toluol,  the  Ordnance  program  required  an  expansion  of  production 
to  30,000,000  gallons  per  year  by  1919.  In  1914  production  of  toluol 
in  the  United  States  was  under  700,000  gallons  per  year.  To  ac- 
complish this,  contracts  were  made  and  gas  stripping  plants  were 


[95] 


"ffie  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


installed  in  the  gas  plants  of  cities  extending  from  Boston  to  New 
Orleans  and  to  Seattle,  so  that  the  gas  burned  by  consumers  in 
cities  all  over  the  country  was  made  to  yield  its  tax  to  Ordnance 
and  to  victory.  Operating  personnel  had  to  be  established  and 
trained  for  these  gas  stripping  plants.  It  was  an  undertaking  of 
considerable  size.  The  first  plant  was  placed  in  operation  in  April, 
1918,  and  by  October,  1919,  this  improvised  source  of  supply  was 
developed  to  over  500,000  gallons  of  crude  toluol  a  month.  It 
would  have  reached  700,000  gallons  in  November,  thus  providing 
as  much  as  the  entire  country  produced  in  1914.  At  a  cost  of  $30,- 
000,000,  more  than  1,100  by-product  recovery  coke  ovens  for  the 
production  of  toluol  were  constructed  which  would  have  provided, 
in  1919,  some  half  a  million  gallons  of  toluol,  and  320  other  ovens, 
of  about  equal  capacity,  would  have  been  completed  later  in  1919 
and  early  in  1920.  Two  plants  for  the  manufacture  of  toluol  by 
special  processes  were  begun  at  Los  Angeles  and  San  Francisco. 
The  latter  plant,  built  for  a  capacity  of  3,000,000  gallons  a  year  was 
90  per  cent  completed  and  was  in  part  operation  when  the  armistice 
was  signed.  Despite  the  demand  for  TNT,  sufficient  toluol  was 
produced  throughout  the  war  to  prevent  failures  or  delays  in  de- 
livery of  high  explosives. 

The  shell  filler  adopted  for  high  explosive  shells  was  amatol,  a 
mixture  of  ammonium  nitrate  and  TNT,  a  product  developed 
in  England  during  the  war.  In  addition  to  the  extension  of  private 
resources  for  the  production  of  ammonium  nitrate,  the  Ordnance 
Department  undertook  the  construction  of  two  atmospheric  nitro- 
gen plants  at  Sheffield,  Alabama,  and  a  third  plant,  which  was  built 
by  the  Atlas  Powder  Co.  as  government  contractors,  for  the  pro- 
duction of  ammonium  nitrate  by  the  Brunner-Mond  process. 
Technical  men  were  sent  to  England  to  study  this  process  and  con- 
struction of  the  third  plant  was  started  on  March  8,  1918,  at  Perry- 
ville,  Md.  Fireproof  construction  was  required  throughout  at  this 
plant.  Production  of  ammonium  nitrate  was  begun  by  the  mid- 
dle of  July  and  before  the  armistice  was  signed  production  had 


[96] 


We  Story"  §f  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


reached  500,000  pounds  of  ammonium  nitrate  a  day;  five-sixths 
of  the  estimated  total  capacity  of  the  plant.  The  character  of  the 
construction  work  required,  the  fact  that  the  plant  had  to  be 
specially  designed  by  American  engineers,  and  that  the  process  of 
manufacture  was  new  and  involved  highly  technical  work,  make 
this  achievement  a  truly  remarkable  accomplishment  to  the  credit 
of  American  industry  in  the  war.  Although  the  British  plant, 
based  upon  this  process,  was  in  operation  before  ground  was  broken 
for  the  building  of  the  Perryville  plant,  the  daily  production  of  the 
American  plant  was  in  excess  of  the  British  plant  when  hostilities 
were  ended. 

For  the  manufacture  of  TNT,  the  Hercules  Powder  Co.  built 
and  put  into  operation,  within  five  months,  a  plant  at  Hercules, 
California,  with  a  capacity  of  3,500,000  lb.  a  month.  Within  the 
same  length  of  time,  the  duPont  Powder  Co.  built  and  put  into 
operation  at  Barksdale,  Wisconsin,  a  plant  with  a  capacity  of 
2,000,000  lb.  a  month.  These,  with  several  smaller  plants,  kept 
the  supply  of  TNT  ahead  of  the  war  demands. 

Large  quantities  of  other  high  explosives,  fulminate  of  mer- 
cury, tetryl,  nitro  starch  and  ammonium  picrate,  were  developed. 
Three  plants  were  started  for  the  supply  of  increased  quantities  of 
picric  acid  to  the  French. 

Demands  of  the  Allies  for  propellants,  smokless  powder  for 
cannon  and  small  arms,  black  powder,  etc.,  had  increased  produc- 
tion in  the  United  States  from  1,500,000  pounds  per  month,  in  1914, 
to  some  9,000,000  pounds  per  month  at  the  time  the  United  States 
entered  the  war.  Yet  the  Ordnance  program  called  for  an  addi- 
tional 75,000,000  pounds  per  month,  none  of  which  could  be  ob- 
tained from  the  sources  of  supply  developed  for  the  Allies. 

The  Ordnance  Department  undertook  the  construction  of  two 
of  the  largest  powder  plants  in  the  world.  The  largest  of  these  was 
built  on  the  site  of  Andrew  Jackson's  home  near  Nashville,  Tenn., 
and  is  called  the  Old  Hickory  plant.  It  covered  an  area  of  5,000 
acres  and  its  construction  required,  as  an  incidental  item,  the  build-

ing  of  a  village  housing  some  20,000  people,  complete  with  schools, 
churches,  and  other  civic  improvements.  Its  estimated  cost  was 
$90,000,000.  The  contract  for  the  construction  of  the  plant  was 
signed  in  January,  1918,  ground  was  broken  in  March,  and  the  first 
of  its  nine  powder  lines  was  placed  in  operation  on  July  1st,  forty- 
five  days  ahead  of  contract  requirements.  At  the  time  of  the  sign- 
ing of  the  armistice,  this  plant  was  90  per  cent  completed  and  had 
reached  a  production  of  400,000  pounds  of  smokeless  powder  per 
day,  also  in  excess  of  contract  requirements.  The  total  estimated 
capacity  of  this  plant  was  900,000  pounds  of  smokeless  powder  per 
day,  but  had  the  performance  registered  prior  to  the  signing  of  the 
armistice  been  continued,  this  would  certainly  have  reached  1,000,- 
000  pounds  per  day. 

The  second  powder  plant  was  built  by  the  Thompson-Starrett 
Company  at  Nitro,  near  Charleston,  West  Virginia.  This  plant 
was  begun  in  February,  1918,  and  the  production  of  powder  begun 
about  the  middle  of  September.  At  the  time  of  the  signing  of  the 
armistice,  its  output  was  averaging  125,000  pounds  a  day.  The 
plant  was  operated  by  the  Hercules  Powder  Co.  under  government 
contract. 

The  provision  of  explosives  and  propellants  was  sufficient  to 
meet  the  demands  of  the  Ordnance  program  at  all  times  without 
interference  in  any  way  with  the  supplies  sent  to  the  Allies.  Had 
the  war  continued,  the  American  supply  in  1919  would  have 
amounted  to  over  one  billion  pounds  of  smokeless  powder,  of  which 
two-thirds  would  have  been  available  for  the  American  Expedition- 
ary Forces  and  the  remainder  for  the  Allies,  and  over  one  and  a 
quarter  billion  pounds  of  high  explosives  of  which  three-fourths 
would  have  been  available  for  the  United  States  Army  and  the  re- 
mainder for  the  Allies. 

FIRE  CONTROL 

The  equipment  known  as  "Sights  and  Fire  Control"  comprises 
those  instruments  and  devices  used  to  control  and  direct  the  firing 


[98] 


^e  Story"  sf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


of  all  military  offensive  weapons  and  to  observe  the  effect  of  this 
fire  in  order  to  place  it  on  the  target. 

Belonging  to  this  equipment  are  all  classes  of  sights,  elevation 
quadrants,  clinometers,  etc.,  which  are  attached  to  the  gun  or  its 
carriage  and  are  used  to  lay  the  gun  in  direction  and  in  elevation; 
also  various  instruments,  such  as  range  finders,  azimuth  instru- 
ments, aiming  circles,  prismatic  compasses  and  many  others,  which 
are  used  by  the  gun  crew  for  determining  the  range  of  the  target 
and  its  position  and  relation  to  the  combatant  forces. 

Present  day  warfare,  with  the  armies  in  trenches,  has  called  for 
many  new  kinds  of  fire  control  instruments,  for  the  reason  that  the 
target  is  usually  not  visible  from  the  position  occupied  by  the  gun 
battery,  and  "indirect"  fire  is  resorted  to.  This  means  that  the  ter- 
rain must  be  carefully  mapped  and  that  there  must  be  provided  an 
elaborate  set  of  special  instruments,  including  the  intricate  "Pan- 
oramic Sight,"  many  of  which  are  not  needed  when  the  target  is  vis- 
ible, as  in  the  case  of  naval  or  coast  defense  warfare.  This  method 
of  indirect  fire  has  extended  to  all  firing  units,  railway  artillery, 
trench  mortar  batteries  and  even  to  machine  guns,  so  that  it  is  now 
necessary  to  equip  each  of  the  above  with  a  complete  set  of  indirect 
fire  control  equipment.  This  has  meant  a  multiplicity  of  new 
instruments,  none  of  which  was  in  existence  before  the  war. 

Another  group  of  instruments,  included  in  the  fire  control 
equipment,  comprises  devices  such  as  range  and  deflection  boards, 
deviation  boards,  range  tables,  wind  indicators  used  as  aids  in  the 
intricate  problem  of  computing  the  flight  of  the  projectile  for  any 
given  conditions  of  range,  altitude,  air  pressure,  temperature,  etc. 

Still  another  group  contains  devices  used  in  estimating  the  alti- 
tude, speed  and  future  location  of  hostile  aircraft,  so  that  effective 
offensive  fire  may  be  maintained.  This  class  of  equipment  is  en- 
tirely new,  exceptionally  intricate  and  ever  changing  in  design. 

Fuse  setters  must  be  supplied  to  Field  Artillery  batteries  so  that 
the  fuses  may  be  timed  to  cause  the  shell  to  burst  at  the  point  in  its 
flight,  when  the  greatest  effect  may  be  produced. 


[99] 


^e  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Many  other  auxiliary  devices  are  called  for,  for  example,  light- 
ing arrangements,  and  self  luminous  aiming  posts  and  marks,  so 
that  accuracy  of  fire  may  be  maintained  even  at  night. 

The  increasing  significance  and  now  recognized  importance  of 
well  placed  shots,  as  compared  with  mere  volume  of  fire,  have  de- 
manded that  all  the  above  mentioned  sights  and  other  instruments 
be  marvels  of  accuracy  and  precision,  and  at  the  same  time  be  able 
to  withstand  the  concussion  and  shock  incident  to  artillery  fire. 
The  accuracy  required  in  some  of  these  instruments  will  be  ap- 
preciated when  it  is  considered  that  at  long  ranges,  such  as  are  com- 
mon to-day,  a  very  slight  error  in  the  sight  will  cause  a  miss  and 
the  total  loss  of  the  shot. 

Certain  items  of  our  present  fire  control  equipment  were  in  pro- 
duction in  this  country  prior  to  April,  1917,  but  only  in  very  small 
quantities.  They  were  as  a  rule  made  in  tool  rooms  by  expert  ma- 
chinists, who  had  plenty  of  time  in  which  to  do  the  work.  The 
problem  of  manufacturing  instruments  in  the  quantities  demanded 
by  our  artillery  program  in  a  short  period  of  time  was  absolutely 
different.  It  meant  quantity  production,  with  shop  machines  and 
low  grade  labor,  instead  of  single  instruments  in  the  tool  room  or 
instrument  shop  by  the  highest  grade  of  labor.  It  meant  working 
to  an  accuracy  1/10000  part  of  an  inch  on  a  heavy  machine  under 
rush  orders,  when  the-  workmen  had  been  accustomed  to  hun- 
dredths or  thousands  of  an  inch,  and  then  only  on  light  work.  The 
amount  of  labor  involved  is  shown  in  the  case  of  the  Schneider 
Quadrant  Sight,  for  some  of  the  heavy  artillery,  where  the  raw  ma- 
terial costs  about  $25.00,  but  the  finished  sight  is  worth  $600.00. 
There  were  more  than  seven  thousand  of  these  to  be  made,  which 
meant  something  like  a  year's  work  for  one  thousand  men. 

In  the  case  of  those  instruments  which  contained  optical  parts, 
the  situation  was  even  more  difficult.  Optical  design  was  not 
understood  by  many  men  and  optical  workers  were  very  few  in 
number.  At  the  begining  of  the  war  there  was  only  one  manu- 
facturer in  this  country  prepared  to  make  military  optical  instru- 


[100] 


One  hundred  thousand  rough  forgings  for  9.2- 
inch  shells.  The  artillery  ammunition  program 
called  for  more  than  153,135,000  rounds  to  be  pro- 
duced within  eighteen  months  from  July  1,  1918, 
for  the  production  of  which  fifty-three  great 
plants  were  built.  To  glimpse  the  characteristics 
of  a  single  shell  of  this  program — the  14-inch — 
its  cost  of  manufacture  was  $600;  weight  1,200 
pounds ;  powder  charge  490  pounds  of  high  explo- 
sive; extreme  range  twenty-six  miles.  At  the 
highest  point  in  the  arc  this  shell  describes  in 
flight  it  is  11  miles  above  the  earth.  Upon  explo- 
sion, it  digs  a  crater  30  feet  in  diameter  and  25 
feet  in  depth,  and  is  fatal  within  a  radius  of  150 
yards,  death  being  caused  by  concussion  alone. 
Ordnance  did  far  better  with  artillery  ammuni- 
tion than  the  Allied  experts,  or  the  Germans, 
dreamed  it  possible  to  do,  and  the  facilities  had 
reached  a  point  of  development  by  November, 
1918,  which  would  have  meant  utter  annihilation 
for  Germany  in  the  Spring  of  1919.

Upper :  The  3-ton  Tank.  The  Ordnance  program 
called  for  23,390  tanks  of  various  types.  The 
Ford  Company,  following  development  of  the 
design,  had  placed  the  manufacture  of  this  3-ton 
tank  upon  a  quantity  basis  and  was  prepared  to 
turn  them  out  at  the  rate  of  100  per  day,  begin- 
ning January  1,  1919.  Only  fifteen  were  actually 
completed  when  the  armistice  was  signed,  but  500 
were  in  process  of  manufacture  and  would  have 
been  turned,  out  by  January  1.  This  is  a  two- 
man  tank,  mounting  one  machine  gun  and  with  a 
speed  of  eight  miles  an  hour.  They  would  have 
been  manufactured  at  the  rate  of  60  tanks  weekly 
in  American  plants  beginning  in  January,  1919.

two  six-pounders  and  seven  machine  guns.  The 
picture  gives  an  idea  of  the  intricate  design  of 
the  tank.  About  fifty  per  cent  of  the  American 
portion  of  production  on  this  35-ton  tank  was 
completed  by  November,  1918. 


[105

ments  in  quantity,  and  he  was  already  overloaded  with  orders.  It 
was  therefore  necessary  to  equip  factories  to  show  manufacturers 
how  to  train  workmen  in  schools,  such  as  those  which  have  been 
established  at  Rochester,  Philadelphia  and  Pasadena,  before  any 
satisfactory  production  could  be  secured.  It  was,  of  course,  neces- 
sary to  utilize  the  services  of  every  available  agency  in  the  work, 
and  the  services  also  of  agencies  that,  under  the  circumstances, 
would  never  have  been  considered  as  available.  For  example,  a 
manufacturer  of  lighting  apparatus  for  automobiles  was  developed 
into  the  chief  source  of  supply  for  the  complicated  sight  for  a  field 
gun;  a  concern  whose  regular  product  was  thermometers  before 
the  war,  was  developed  into  a  manufacturer  of  intricate  sights. 

A  further  complication  in  the  manufacture  of  military  optical 
instruments  was  the  lack  of  suitable  glass.  Before  the  war  we  had 
imported  practically  all  of  the  optical  glass  used  in  this  country, 
and  it  was  necessary  after  we  entered  the  war  to  develop  formulas 
and  processes  for  making  optical  glass,  to  set  up  manufacturing 
plants,  and  to  produce  the  glass  ourselves.  Several  different  kinds 
of  glass  were  needed  and  the  production  of  these  seriously  delayed 
completion  of  certain  instruments.  Great  progress  was  made, 
along  this  line,  however,  and  apparently  insuperable  obstacles  over- 
come, but  the  supply  was  never  quite  sufficient  to  meet  the  needs. 
The  development  work  done  will,  however,  render  us  independent 
of  any  foreign  source  of  supply  of  optical  glass  in  future. 

MOTOR  EQUIPMENT 
It  has  been  said,  "An  Army  is  as  good  as  its  transportation  and 
it  is  not  too  much  to  say  that  its  existence  or  the  nation's  existence 
in  time  of  war  is  staked  on  the  efficiency  of  its  military  transporta- 
tion. Particularly  is  this  true  in  modern  warfare  which  for  the 
main  part  is  made  up  of  a  series  of  movements  consisting  of  tre- 
mendous artillery  preparations  followed  by  heavy  infantry  attacks. 
The  limiting  factor  in  this  form  of  strategy  invariably  proves  to 
be  lack  of  facilities  for  following  up  the  attack  with  adequate  artil- 
lery and  supplies,  so  that  the  extent  of  the  advance  is  limited. 


[106] 


We  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


In  previous  wars,  wheeled  vehicles  had  been  relied  upon  almost 
entirely,  and  from  the  viewpoint  of  speed,  simplicity  and  reliability 
they  are  still  satisfactory  on  good  roads.  But  the  warfare  of  the 
present  calls  for  the  manoeuvering  of  the  Army  on  territory  which 
renders  this  vehicle  practically  useless  as  a  follow-up  and  it  was 
soon  seen  that  it  was  entirely  inadequate  except  for  use  behind  the 
lines  on  good  roads.  The  tracklaying  type,  or  caterpillar,  was  al- 
ready in  use,  but  this  was  too  slow  for  ordinary  use,  so  that  the 
need  for  a  new  development  along  this  line  was  urgent. 

The  combination  of  the  tracklaying  with  the  wheeled  type  was 
conceived  as  a  solution  to  the  problem,  and  the  possibilities  of  this 
were  foreseen  to  be  enormous. 

Upon  our  entry  into  the  War,  we  were  faced  with  the  problem 
of  developing  and  manufacturing  many  items  of  motor  equipment 
never  before  made  in  this  country.  In  August,  1917,  cables  brought 
information  of  the  need  for  motorizing  our  field  guns,  from  the 
three-inch  up  to  the  eight-inch.  In  November  the  tank  pro- 
gram arrived  from  overseas.  November  brought  news  of  the  neces- 
sity for  the  development  of  mobile  repair  shops,  already  conceived 
in  our  Mexican  Punitive  Expedition.  In  October  the  requirements 
were  received  for  wheeled  trucks  and  tractors  for  hauling  loads  on 
roads. 

The  first  difficulty  presented  in  carrying  out  this  enormous  pro- 
gram which  involved  the  designing,  the  building  of  facilities  and 
securing  of  materials  for,  and  the  construction  of,  more  than  120,000 
motorized  vehicles,  was  the  procurement  of  a  suitable  personnel. 
A  corps  of  automotive  experts  were  needed  as  officers  for  this  sec- 
tion, men  of  experience  and  creative  ability  along  this  line.  Also, 
a  vast  number  of  skilled  mechanics  were  needed  as  enlisted  men 
to  be  trained  in  the  operation  and  repair  of  this  materiel.  And 
these  had  to  be  selected  without  too  heavy  a  drain  upon  the  plants 
needed  to  manufacture  it. 

The  next  problem  was  the  securing  of  hundreds  of  manufac- 
turers.   The  materiel  was  of  new  types  never  before  made  in  this 


[107] 


r

country  and  many  of  the  automobile  manufacturers  were  incapable 
of  making  it. 

The  constant  change  of  drawings  necessitated  by  the  difficulty 
of  obtaining  complete  specifications,  by  the  need  for  adapting  them 
as  much  as  possible  to  the  facilities  of  the  manufacturers  to  hasten 
production,  and  by  the  demands  of  changing  tactics  at  the  front  of- 
fered another  obstacle  seriously  delaying  production. 

One  of  the  most  important  limiting  factors  in  the  time  element 
proved  to  be  transportation.  Inasmuch  as  many  of  the  pieces  con- 
sisted of  several  hundred  items  purchased  from  innumerable 
sources,  the  project  became  very  complex  and  the  transportation 
of  both  raw  materials  and  components  very  serious. 

The  value  of  the  materiel  ordered  up  to  the  signing  of  the 
armistice  amounted  to  nearly  half  a  billion  dollars.  It  included 
35,363  trucks  of  the  Supply,  Winch,  Ammunition,  Artillery  Repair, 
Equipment,  Light  Repair,  Machine  Gun  and  Heavy  Mobile  Artil- 
lery types;  2,257  Staff  Observation  and  Reconnaissance  Cars;  4,747 
trailers  of  the  l^-ton,  3"  field-gun,  3"  anti-aircraft,  4- ton  and  10-ton 
models;  24,973  tractors,  including  21/2-ton,  5-ton,  10-ton,  15-ton  and 
20-ton  types;  and  23,390  tanks  of  the  3-ton  and  6-ton  types  to- 
gether with  416  caterpillar  mounts. 

While  the  actual  deliveries  on  Ordnance  contracts  up  to  the 
time  of  signing  the  armistice  of  21,699  heavy,  and  in  many  cases 
special,  motor  vehicles  was  a  remarkable  accomplishment,  the 
work  was,  nevertheless,  just  getting  into  its  stride.  Facilities  had 
been  built  up,  the  tooling  up  had  been  completed,  the  personnel 
was  trained,  and  quantity  production  was  well  established  with  the 
exception  of  those  vehicles  for  which  demands  had  been  received  at 
late  dates.  In  these  cases  production  was  ready  to  start.  For 
instance,  the  Ford  company  had  just  reached  the  point  where  pro- 
duction of  3-ton  tanks  was  ready  to  go  ahead,  reaching  a  produc- 
tion of  100  a  day  January  1,  1919;  and  the  6-ton  tank  facilities, 
divided  among  three  companies,  were  beginning  to  turn  out  tanks 
at  the  rate  of  60  a  week.    The  production  had  so  far  advanced  that 


[108] 


W^  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


even  the  rigid  cancellation  of  orders  at  the  time  of  the  armistice 
made  it  impossible,  from  an  economical  standpoint,  to  reduce  the 
number  of  vehicles  completed  below  46,000,  of  which  21,699,  as 
stated  above,  were  actually  delivered  before  the  armistice  was 
signed,  and  of  which  37,081  were  delivered  before  January  31,  1919. 

Had  production  continued  until  Spring,  the  American  Ex- 
peditionary Forces  would  have  had  an  array  of  motor  equipment  in 
France  which  would  have  rendered  possible  the  most  sweeping 
advance  which  could  be  made. 

The  most  interesting  project  of  the  entire  motor  equipment 
work  is  probably  the  Heavy  Mobile  Artillery  Repair  Shop.  This 
comprises  a  vast  organization  of  repair  shops,  tool-rooms,  lathes, 
power  generators,  air-compressors,  stock-rooms,  drill-presses,  bag- 
gage trailers,  welding-and-forge  outfits,  power  saws,  milling-ma- 
chines, huge  cranes,  executive  offices,  rolling-kitchens,  and  all  the 
other  various  accessories  of  the  complete  repair  and  tool-shop, — 
all  on  wheels  on  great  five-  and  ten-ton  trucks.  Each  repair  shop 
is  composed  of  two  identical  units  of  24  trucks  each.  Each  is  self- 
contained,  i.  e.,  it  carries  its  own  personnel,  consisting  of  51  officers 
and  men,  its  own  power,  sleeping  accomodations  and  provisions, 
and  is  perfectly  independent  of  the  other  half. 

The  range  of  work  done  in  these  shops  is  amazing.  Theoret- 
ically their  scope  is  the  repair  of  light  and  heavy  artillery,  small 
arms,  carriages,  mounts,  and  vehicles.  Actually,  everything  from 
motor-trucks  to  victrolas,  from  bicycles  to  shower-baths,  from  roll- 
ing-kitchens to  typewriters,  from  stone-crushers  to  broken  eye- 
glasses is  confidently  brought  to  the  shop  for  mending. 

Nine  of  these  shops  are  required  per  Army,  eight  for  the  eight 
heavy  artillery  brigades  and  one  for  the  tank  corps. 

TRENCH  WARFARE 

Under  the  group  heading  of  Trench  Warfare  are  included  some 
150  weapons  and  devices  peculiar  to  warfare  of  position.  The  total 
amount  of  this  materiel  manufactured  by  the  Ordnance  Depart- 


[109] 


We  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


ment  during  the  War  would  fill  4,327  freight  cars,  and  it  should  be 
remembered  that  for  the  most  part  it  is  compact  and  portable.  The 
hand  grenades  alone,  whose  manufacture  involves  265  operations, 
would  require  1,156  freight  cars.  For  the  little  parachutes  used  to 
suspend  signal  lights  1,688,000  yards  of  silk  were  required.  The 
ammunition  for  the  3-inch  and  6-inch  trench  mortars  would  occupy 
981  freight  cars.  The  chemical  warfare  apparatus  manufactured 
and  under  manufacture  at  the  time  of  the  Armistice  would  have 
been  adequate  to  project  more  poisonous  gas  than  Germany  and 
our  Allies  combined  could  produce. 

The  hand  grenade  game  began,  of  course,  back  in  the  15th 
century  when  the  Chinese  filled  pottery  jugs  with  most  unpleasant 
gases  and  threw  them  over  walls  at  other  Chinese.  These  primitive 
weapons  went  by  the  picturesque  and  expressive  name  of  "Stink- 
pots." Early  in  the  European  War,  the  Allies  began  to  revive  this 
weapon  in  the  form  of  crudely  improvised  devices,  such  as  gasoline 
cans,  but  their  possibilities  were  soon  seen  and  developed  to  a  high 
stage  of  perfection  represented  in  our  present  7  types  of  hand- 
grenades.  These  are  known  as  the  defensive,  offensive  (an  Amer- 
ican invention),  phosphorus,  incendiary,  thermit  and  two  types 
of  gas,  each  having  its  own  particular  use  indicated  by  the  name. 

A  total  of  34,800,000  was  made  prior  to  the  cessation  of  hostil- 
ities, of  which  more  than  27,000,000  were  of  the  Defensive  type, 
most  of  the  other  types  having  just  passed  the  experimental  stage 
and  begun  on  quantity  production. 

It  was  in  the  manufacture  of  this  item  that  women  played  the 
greatest  part  in  all  munition  manufacture.  Of  the  5,000  workers 
engaged  on  it,  nearly  90  per  cent  were  women,  and  at  no  time  was 
there  a  strike  or  any  labor  disturbance. 

The  rifle  grenade,  used  both  as  an  offensive  and  a  defensive 
weapon,  was  adopted  from  the  French  "V.B."  or  Viven  Bessiere. 
Its  advantage  lay  in  the  range,  which  was  approximately  200  yards, 
the  effective  range  after  the  explosion  being  about  75  yards. 
Twenty  million  of  these  were  produced. 


[110] 


We  Story*  §f  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


The  Livens  projector  form  of  gas  shell  was  developed  to  replace 
the  old  gas  drum  which  had  to  be  placed  out  in  No-Man's-Land  at 
night  with  considerable  attendant  risk,  and  which  was  entirely  de- 
pendent upon  wind  conditions.  The  Livens  projector  shoots  its 
shell  directly  at  the  enemy's  trench  over  which  it  forms  a  thick 
smoke  cloud  of  high  concentration.  Two  kinds  of  gases  are  used, 
the  famous  lachrymatory,  which  is  extremely  painful  and  tempo- 
rarily blinds  the  victim,  and  the  fatal  gas,  which  may  result  in  a  trip 
to  the  hospital  with  a  slow  recovery. 

Special  troops,  known  as  Gas  and  Flame  Troops,  whose  sole 
duty  it  is  to  conduct  these  attacks,  make  a  tour  of  the  trenches, 
staging  attacks  in  favorable  sectors,  i.  e.  where  the  enemy  is  known 
to  have  concentrated  its  troops.  The  projectors  which  are  placed 
in  groups  of  five  batteries  of  25  projectors  each,  are  fired  sim- 
ultaneously by  electric  control. 

Seventy-five  thousand  gas  shells  and  62,900  barrels  and  base 
plates  were  completed  by  November  11,  1918. 

The  use  of  drop  bombs  became  very  extensive  as  the  air  pro- 
gram increased.  The  high  capacity  drop  bombs  of  which  453,286 
had  been  produced,  were  of  5  types,  weighing  from  25  to  500 
pounds,  and  were  used  chiefly  for  demolition  purposes  against 
strongly  fortified^  positions,  houses,  railroad  terminals  and  similar 
structures. 

The  incendiary  bombs,  used  for  lighter  structures  and  grain 
fields,  objects  requiring  a  more  slowly  burning  type,  were  aban- 
doned after  only  about  58,000  had  been  completed  for  the  Mark 
II  or  intensive  type.  Approximately  86,000  of  these  were  made  in 
this  country. 

The  only  bomb  employed  against  personnel  was  the  fragmenta- 
tion bomb.  Of  this  class,  the  Barlow  heavy  was  the  first  type  of 
all  bombs  to  be  made  in  this  country,  its  manufacture  having 
started  in  November  1917.  But  its  mechanism  proved  too  compli- 
cated and  after  the  production  of  9,000  it  was  abandoned  for  the 
Mark  II  A  and  II  B  and  the  modified  3-inch  H.  E.  shell,  which  was

found  to  be  highly  efficient  when  adjusted  with  the  bomb  mech- 
anism. About  30,000  of  these  in  storage  were  modified  and  used 
accordingly. 

Approximately  194,000  dummy  bombs,  used  for  training  pur- 
poses, were  also  made. 

For  the  early  pyrotechnics  program  the  capacity  of  the  three 
largest  fireworks  manufacturers  in  the  country,  together  with  the 
Lewis  Nixon  works  at  New  Brunswick,  N.  J.,  was  sufficient,  but 
with  the  new  requirements  schedules  in  June,  1918,  tremendous  ex- 
pansion became  necessary.  This  was  after  the  cable  order  to 
change  to  the  French  type  of  pyrotechnics  had  been  received  and 
work  had  been  suspended  until  new  drawings  could  be  made  ready. 

The  new  pyrotechnics  program  was  very  extensive,  involving 
about  65  new  types  and  styles.  Production  up  to  the  time  of  the 
armistice  was  as  follows:  signal  rockets,  450,000;  position  lights, 
Mk.  I,  743,000;  position  lights,  Mk  II,  807,032;  rifle  lights,  55,000; 
signal  lights,  Mk.  I,  110,000;  V.  B.  cartridges,  500,000;  signal 
lights,  Mk.  II,  2,551,000;  smoke  torches  110,000;  wing  tip  flares, 
80,165;  airplane  flares,  4,900. 

Signal  pistols  were  made  exclusively  by  the  Remington  Arms 
UMC.  Of  the  10-gauge,  20,164  has  been  made  before  the  change 
to  the  French  25  m/m  was  made  on  August  5,  1918.  Fifteen  thou- 
sand of  these  had  been  completed  by  December  and  the  35  m/m 
was  well  under  way. 

The  3-inch  trench  mortar  was  used  chiefly  against  personnel  by 
the  infantry.  It  fired  a  shell  of  twelve  pounds  at  the  rate  of  from 
35  to  40  per  minute  to  a  distance  of  750  yards. 

The  4-inch  mortar  is  used  for  the  most  part  by  special  gas 
troops  to  gas  the  enemy  front  line  and  communicating  trenches, 
as  well  as  for  a  smoke  barrage  for  starting  fires  and  lowering  the 
morale  of  the  enemy  troops  by  spreading  molten  iron  on  them. 
Its  shell  is  a  24-pounder  with  a  1,000-yard  range. 

The  6-inch  mortar  is  a  demolition  agent  and  is  extremely  ef- 
fective against  machine-gun  nests,  barb-wire  entanglements,  forti-

winning  of  the  war  of  the  women  munition  work- 
ers. Of  the  5,000  persons  engaged  in  grenade

no  time  was  there  a  strike  or  any  labor  disturb- 
ance, a  record  that  is  without  parallel  in  the

THE  STORY  OF  THE  U.  S.  RIFLE. 

It  has  been  suggested  that  one  of  the  difficulties  under  which 
the  Ordnance  Department  labored  was  that  Ordnance  design  and 
manufacture  was  so  unfamiliar  a  realm  to  those  civilians,  upon 
whom  reliance  had  to  be  placed  to  a  great  extent  for  the  fulfillment 
of  the  task,  that  it  was  necessary  to  teach  and  improvise  technique 
before  a  wheel  could  be  started  turning.  Yet  at  the  very  outset  of 
the  Story  of  Ordnance  in  the  Great  War,  is  found  a  situation  in 
which  it  was  the  familiarity  of  the  layman  with  the  problem  of  the 
Ordnance  Department  that  proved  a  source  of  embarrassment. 
The  story  of  the  U.  S.  rifle  is  unique  in  this  respect.  Millions  of 
Americans  possessed  some  familiarity  with  a  rifle.  Thousands  of 
them  were  ready  with  solutions  of  the  problem  of  equipping  our 
armies  with  them.  When  the  Ordnance  Department  came  out 
with  its  remedy,  it  had  to  withstand  the  most  bitter  criticism. 

In  the  production  of  the  rifle  the  Ordnance  Department  took  its 
stand  upon  the  same  ground  that  it  did  with  regard  to  machine 
guns,  artillery  and  all  other  weapons,  namely,  that  the  goal  to 
reach  was  a  rate  of  production  of  rifles  adequate  to  continuously 
supply  the  armies  to  be  put  into  the  field,  and  to  obtain  the  highest 
quality  commensurate  with  this  production.  Prior  to  the  war,  the 
United  States  Army  was  manufacturing  a  rifle  of  excellent  quality, 
the  U.  S.  Rifle,  Calibre  .30,  Model  of  1903.  This  rifle  was  manu- 
factured at  the  Springfield  Armory,  Springfield,  Mass.,  and  at  the 


[116] 


t^e  Story"  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Rock  Island  Arsenal,  Rock  Island,  111.  But  it  was  realized  that  the 
highest  rate  of  production  that  could  possibly  be  attained  in  the 
manufacture  of  this,  the  Springfield  rifle,  at  these  two  arsenals 
would  be  far  too  small  to  meet  the  requirements  of  the  army  which 
the  United  States  proposed  to  put  into  the  field.  Outside  sources 
of  supply  had  to  be  provided.  The  Ordnance  Department  was 
criticised  for  failure  to  adopt  this  excellent  Springfield  rifle,  but 
finally  convinced  its  critics  that  the  sources  of  supply  for  it  were 
utterly  inadequate. 

Then  the  Ordnance  Department  turned  to  those  private  plants 
which  were  engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  rifles  for  our  Allies.  For 
these  plants  to  have  manufactured  the  Springfield,  it  would  have 
been  necessary  to  reequip  them.  That  was  out  of  the  question. 
But  the  rifle  which  they  were  making  for  the  Allies,  was  deemed 
unsatisfactory  by  the  Ordnance  Department.  It  was  the  British 
.303  rifle,  chambered  for  a  rim  cartridge,  liable  to  jam  and  misfire, 
a  weapon  which  the  British  were  about  to  discard  just  before  the 
war  and  which  they  would  have  discarded,  in  favor  of  a  rifle  using 
a  high  powered  rimless  cartridge,  had  it  not  been  that  they  lacked 
time  to  make  any  change  at  all.  The  Ordnance  Department  de- 
cided against  the  manufacture  of  the  British  .303  rifle.  Again  there 
was  criticism,  this  time  because  the  Ordnance  Department  was 
insisting  upon  quality,  and,  as  its  critics  considered,  sacrificing 
immediate  quantity  production. 

Perhaps  it  was  a  bold  step  that  the  Ordnance  Department  took; 
to  decide  upon  a  design  of  rifle  to  be  produced  in  these  private 
plants  which  would,  and  did,  prevent  a  single  rifle  from  being  de- 
livered by  them  until  August  18th,  more  than  four  months  after 
our  entrance  into  the  war.  But  the  Department  was  playing  for 
two  things,  ultimate  rate  of  production  and  adequate  quality.  It 
refused  to  rely  upon  the  Springfield  rifle  because  of  limited  quantity 
and  rejected  the  .303  because  of  inferior  quality.  The  responsibility 
of  the  Ordnance  Department  is  twofold,  to  get  enough  weapons 
into  the  hands  of  soldiers  on  the  battlefield  and  to  get  the  sort  of 


[117] 


We  Story  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 

weapons  upon  which  they  can  rely.  A  burst  rifle  barrel,  a  jam- 
med cartridge  means  the  life  of  a  soldier  for  which  Ordnance  is 
responsible.  Line  officers  will  tell  you  that  they  would  rather  have 
ten  men  killed  by  the  enemy's  fire  than  one  man  by  the  failure  of  his 
own  weapons,  because  the  latter  disaster  breaks  the  confidence  of 
men  in  their  weapons,  is  destructive  of  morale,  and  counts  far  more 
against  you  in  battle  than  greater  loss  at  the  hands  of  the  enemy. 

The  Ordnance  Department  was  simply  following  the  policy  of 
taking  its  criticism  from  the  American  public  at  the  outset,  instead 
of  waiting  to  receive  it  from  the  American  soldier  when  the  battle 
was  on.  Consequently  the  Department's  small  arms  expert,  Brig- 
adier General  John  T.  Thompson,  simply  endured  his  critics  and 
played  for  final  results.  He  insisted  upon  the  manufacture  of  the 
U.  S.  Rifle  Model  of  1917,  an  adaptation  of  the  .303,  chambered  to 
take  a  high  powered  rimless  cartridge,  with  the  barrel  strength- 
ened, a  changed  bolt,  ejector  and  stock  and  with  relatively  great 
interchangeability  of  parts.  This  produced  a  weapon  particularly 
suited  for  the  use  of  troops  quickly  converted  from  civilian  life. 
The  Springfield  is  possibly  a  better  weapon  for  expert  riflemen  but 
in  the  opinion  of  a  large  number  of  the  officers  in  charge  of  training 
the  National  Army  of  the  United  States,  the  U.  S.  Rifle,  Model  of 
1917,  could  not  have  been  surpassed  for  this  purpose.  Troops  not 
experienced  in  rifle  fire  made  records  with  it  which  astonished 
experts.  In  insisting  upon  these  changes  General  Thompson 
not  only  gave  the  American  soldier  a  better  weapon  than  he 
would  have  received  otherwise,  but  he  actually  ultimately  in- 
creased the  rate  of  production  by  insisting  upon  interchange- 
ability  of  parts.  Thus  where  a  man  could  assemble,  at  the 
utmost,  50  rifles  of  the  British  .303  design,  the  average  as- 
sembled with  the  Model  1917  was  200  per  day  and  the  record  as- 
sembly was  281.  Moreover  the  three  great  plants  engaged  in  the 
manufacture  of  these  rifles  found  it  possible  to  cooperate  as  never 
before,  because  if  one  of  them  lacked  a  certain  part  this  could  be 


[118] 


*®e  Story*  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


supplied  from  another  plant.    The  interchangeability  of  parts  aver- 
aged about  93  per  cent. 

During  all  this  time,  the  Ordnance  Department  was  under  con- 
stant criticism  for  its  failure  to  supply  rifles,  any  old  sort  of  rifles. 
Stories  of  broomstick  parades  at  the  encampments  were  circulated. 
Congressional  investigations  were  carried  on.    The  final  result  was 
that  by  November  9,  1918,  two  days  before  the  signing  of  the 
armistice  with  Germany,  the  Ordnance  Department  had  accepted  a 
total  of  2,498,998  U.  S.  Rifles  Model  of  1917  and  1903.    During  that 
same  period  of  nineteen  months  England  produced  1,070,000  rifles 
and  France  1,400,000.    Yet  both  England  and  France  had  the  ad- 
vantage of  having  been  at  the  game  for  three  years,  whereas  the 
United  States  "wasted"  four  good  months  getting  ready  before  a 
single  Model  of  1917  Rifle  was  delivered.  During  July,  August  and 
September  of  1918,  the  rate  of  production  of  rifles  by  England  was 
112,821  and  of  France  40,500,  while  the  rate  with  the  United  States 
was  233,562.    In  the  early  part  of  November  1918,  the  rate  of  pro- 
duction of  rifles  in  the  United  States  was  approximately  10,000  per 
day,  more  than  enough  to  have  taken  care  of  the  armies  we  pro- 
posed to  put  into  the  field  and  to  have  guarded  against  loss  and 
wastage.    In  other  words  the  rifle  problem  was  successfully  and 
completely  solved.    The  grand  total  of  rifles  of  the  United  States 
on  hand  at  the  time  of  the  signing  of  the  armistice  was  3,575,356  or 
enough,  on  the  basis  of  fifty  per  cent  of  man  power  being  armed 
with  rifles,  to  supply  an  army  of  7,000,000  men,  disregarding  re- 
serve and  maintenance  rifles. 

Not  only  was  this  accomplished  in  the  face  of  bitter  criticism 
but  while  chaotic  conditions  were  prevailing  with  regard  to  labor 
and  raw  materials.  Yet  the  approximate  cost  to  the  United  States 
government  of  the  United  States  Rifle  Model  of  1917  was  $25.99 
as  compared  with  approximately  $42.00  paid  by  the  British  gov- 
ernment for  the  British-Enfield,  calibre  .303,  from  the  same  plants. 
The  American  rifle  was  an  improved  weapon  at  $17.00  less  cost, 
which  could  be  manufactured  in  larger  quantities. 


[1191 


We  Story  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


While  the  larger  part  of  the  small  arms  program  was  devoted 
to  the  manufacture  of  the  Model  of  1917  in  private  plants,  the  record 
of  Springfield  Armory  and  Rock  Island  Arsenal  with  the  produc- 
tion of  the  Springfield  rifle  (U.  S.  Model  1903)  during  the  war  was 
excellent.  Tooled  up  for  the  production  of  1,200  rifles  per  day  in 
two  shifts  of  ten  hours  each,  Springfield  actually  reached  a  pro- 
duction of  1,500  rifles  a  day,  and  Rock  Island  Arsenal,  tooled  up  to 
equip  625  rifles  a  day,  produced  in  spare  parts  the  equal  of  1,100 
rifles  a  day.  It  is  a  rare  thing  for  actual  production  to  climb  above 
an  estimate  of  capacity  in  this  way. 

But  the  Ordnance  Department  did  not  end  its  responsibility 
with  the  production  of  rifles.  It  organized  a  corps  of  rifle  experts 
to  visit  every  cantonment  in  the  country  to  explain  the  rifle  to  the 
men.  In  this  way  it  obtained  the  very  best  and  most  intelligent 
use  of  its  product.  Also  it  watched,  and  corrected  wherever  pos- 
sible or  necessary,  every  weakness  and  fault  developed  in  the  actual 
use  of  the  weapon.  As  an  instance,  in  five  cases  where  barrels  of 
rifles  burst,  a  test  of  each  of  them  was  made  and  the  facts  in 
each  case  were  given  as  wide  publicity  as  could  be  obtained.  Thus 
did  Ordnance  attempt  to  stand  back  of  its  product  after  it  was 
placed  in  the  hands  of  the  soldier. 

To  borrow  a  picture  from  Major  Van  Deventer :  the  Yanks  go 
over  the  top,  fifty  per  cent  of  them  depending  for  life  and  victory 
upon  their  rifles.  The  weapons  function  properly.  The  cartridges 
do  not  jam.  The  barrels  do  not  burst.  The  sights  are  easy  to  use 
for  the  accurate  fire  demanded  of  American  soldiers.  The  parts 
can  be  replaced.  Their  high  powered  ammunition  gives  them 
range.  The  American  soldier  is  thereby  made  what  he  is  worth  as 
a  man,  plus  his  value  with  the  best  of  the  tools  of  war  in  his  hand. 
That  is  Ordnance. 

THE  STORY  OF  THE  MACHINE  GUN. 
The  destructive  power  of  the  machine  gun  and  automatic  rifle 
is  not  made  evident  in  the  firing  of  a  single  gun.    It  is  when  a  long 


[120] 


We  Story-*  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


line  of  them  burst  forth  that  the  strip  of  land  before  you  is  swept 
with  lead  as  a  sheet  of  flame  sweeps  a  prairie.  It  was  the  multipli- 
cation, again  and  again,  of  the  number  of  automatic  rifles  and  ma- 
chine guns  brought  into  action  that  gave  these  weapons  their 
prominence  in  the  Great  War. 

Two  distinct  things  were  required  of  and  accomplished  by  the 
Ordnance  Department  with  respect  to  machine  guns ;  first,  distinct 
new  types  designed  for  a  tactical  use  theretofore  not  expected  of 
automatic  fire  arms  had  to  be  and  were  developed;  and,  secondly, 
automatic  weapons  of  all  types  had  to  be  produced  in  quantities 
undreamed  of  before  the  war.  The  automatic  rifle,  a  light  weapon 
of  fourteen  pounds  weight,  carried  forward  and  operated  by  one 
man,  firing  from  the  hip  or  shoulder  in  bursts  of  twenty  or  forty 
shots  at  the  rate  of  500  shots  per  minute,  is  distinctly  a  develop- 
ment of  this  war.  The  water-cooled  gun  (so-called  heavy  type) 
was  developed  to  a  serviceable  stage  prior  to  the  time  of  the  Span- 
ish-American war.  It  was  greatly  improved  in  design  during  the 
European  war,  but  it  was  the  vastly  greater  number  of  them  em- 
ployed that  was  of  more  consequence  than  the  improvement  in  de- 
sign. Machine  guns  were  counted  by  the  score  at  the  outset  of  the 
war  and  by  the  tens  of  thousands  at  the  end. 

This  vast  expansion  in  materiel  necessitated  a  prior  expansion 
in  personnel,  for  the  guns  could  not  be  produced  until  there  were 
men  to  produce  them.  Prior  to  the  war  the  development  of  ma- 
chine-gun experts  had  been  proportionate  to  the  importance  at- 
tached to  this  weapon.  The  machine  gun  was  almost  an  incidental 
item  in  Ordnance  equipment,  and  the  machine-gun  expert  was  al- 
most an  incidental,  accidental  appendage  of  the  military  establish- 
ment. 

For  a  specialized  Ordnance  personnel  we  find  in  1916  Captain 
(later  Colonel)  Earl  MacFarland  as  the  sole  Ordnance  machine- 
gun  expert  in  Washington.  Nor  were  machine  guns  his  specialty 
except  in  so  far  as  his  predilection  and  his  surplus  energy  dictated. 
He  was  attached  to  the  Gun  Carriage  Division  of  the  Office  of  the 


[121] 


We  Story  sf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Chief  of  Ordnance  and  was  charged  with  all  inspection  matters  re- 
garding seacoast  carriages  and  with  several  other  heavy  duties,  of 
which  machine-gun  development  was  but  one.  In  the  field  the  ma- 
chine-gun problem  was  left  to  Captain  (later  Lt.  Col.)  J.  S.  Hatcher 
who,  under  the  commanding  officer  of  the  Department  of  the 
Southwest,  established  in  1916  the  first  school  for  the  instruction 
of  line  troops  in  the  use  and  care  of  automatic  weapons.  So  much 
for  the  prologue.  To  appreciate  better  the  terrain  over  which  the 
Ordnance  Department  progressed  in  the  development  and  supply 
of  machine  guns  until  the  day  of  the  signing  of  the  armistice,  let  us 
just  here  glimpse  the  final  achievement. 

At  the  outset  of  the  war  Germany  was  credited  with  a  stock  of 
50,000  machine  guns  and  was  the  only  belligerent  nation  to  per- 
ceive the  character  of  the  role  to  be  played  by  these  weapons.  Nor 
did  Germany  then  place  all  the  emphasis  advisable  upon  her  ma- 
chine-gun program. 

As  a  result  of  a  careful  study  of  the  experiences  of  our  allies  in 
the  war,  it  was  decided  at  an  early  date  that  each  of  our  divisions 
should  be  equipped  with  seven  hundred  sixty-eight  automatic  rifles 
and  two  hundred  twenty-four  machine  guns.  When  this  require- 
ment is  compared  with  the  pre-war  allowances  of  about  fifty  ma- 
chine guns  and  no  automatic  rifles  at  all  to  an  Infantry  Division, 
and  when  it  is  remembered  that  at  the  beginning  of  the  war  this 
country  had  on  hand  only  approximately  thirteen  hundred  machine 
guns  of  all  types,  and  these  were  not  generally  accepted  as  suitable 
for  service  in  the  war,  some  idea  may  be  gained  of  the  difficulty  con- 
fronting the  Ordnance  Department  relative  to  weapons  of  this 
type.  As  an  indication  of  how  well  the  Ordnance  Department  met 
its  obligations  in  this  regard,  it  should  be  noted  that  during  the 
nineteen  months  we  were  in  the  war,  sufficient  automatic  rifles  were 
produced  to  equip  over  one  hundred  divisions  at  seven  hundred 
sixty-eight  guns  each,  or  an  army  of  approximately  three  million 
five  hundred  thousand  men,  and  sufficient  machine  guns  were  pro- 
duced to  provide  an  army  of  seven  million  men.     In  addition  to

mounted  on  tripod.  The  automatic  rifle  is  a 
weapon  of  fourteen  pounds  weight  which  is  car- 
ried forward  in  an  infantry  advance  and  operated 
by  one  man,  firing  from  shoulder  or  hip  in  short 
bursts  of  fire.  Such  tactical  use  of  an  automatic 
weapon  was  a  development  of  this  war,  perfected 
through  the  superior  design  of  the  Light  Brown- 
ing. The  heavy  machine  gun  is  a  water- jacketed 
weapon  capable  of  continuous  stream  fire.  A 
Browning  heavy  has  fired  as  many  as  40,000 
rounds  without  malfunction  or  jamming.  During 
the  nineteen  months  the  United  States  engaged  in 
war,  enough  automatic  rifles  were  produced  to 
equip  an  army  of  3,500,000  men,  and  enough 
machine  guns  were  produced  to  equip  an  army  of 
over  seven  million  men.  These  guns  develop 
more  power  than  does  a  racing  automobile.

these  weapons  which  were  provided  for  use  on  the  ground,  the 
Ordnance  Department  produced  during  the  nineteen  months  of  the 
war,  seventy-one  thousand  one  hundred  twenty-five  aircraft  ma- 
chine guns.  In  all  a  total  of  eighty-one  thousand  automatic  rifles 
and  one  hundred  twenty-five  thousand  seven  hundred  fifty- two  ma- 
chine guns  of  all  types  were  produced. 

Quantity  production,  however,  poorly  measures  the  full  extent 
of  the  achievement.  Testimonials  as  to  the  quality  of  that  produc- 
tion are  available  from  officers  of  the  American  Expeditionary 
Forces,  from  machine-gun  experts  of  the  Allied  Armies  and,  in- 
deed, from  the  enemy  himself  who  swallowed  the  fire  of  our 
product. 

Back  of  this  prodigious  production,  is  the  expert  organization 
which  Ordnance  improvised  and  developed — the  work  of  the  Ord- 
nance Department.  I  know  of  no  standard  of  measurement,  no 
calculation  that  will  permit  the  layman  to  sum  up  the  human  labor 
this  accomplishment  required.  The  work  of  the  Ordnance  person- 
nel is  always,  for  the  layman,  the  incalculable  component  of  victory. 
But  to  return  to  the  details  of  the  task : 

The  rifle  and  small  arms  manufacturing  facilities  of  the 
country  had  been  largely  developed  prior  to  our  entry  into 
the  war,  due  to  the  fact  that  the  Allied  governments  had 
placed  large  orders  for  rifles  and  ammunition  with  our  manu- 
facturers. This  condition  of  affairs  did  not  exist  in  the  case 
of  machine  guns  and  automatic  rifles  inasmuch  as  the  Allies  de- 
pended almost  wholly  upon  their  own  resources  for  these  weapons. 
Only  two  American  plants  were  actually  producing  machine  guns 
in  quantity;  the  Savage  Arms  Corporation  of  Utica,  N.  Y.,  was 
nearing  the  completion  of  an  order  of  12,500  Lewis  machine  guns 
for  the  British  and  Canadian  governments,  and  the  Marlin-Rock- 
well  Corporation  had  manufactured  large  numbers  of  the  Colt  ma- 
chine gun  (old  type)  for  the  Russian  government.  On  April  12, 
1917,  a  week  after  the  declaration  of  war,  an  order  for  1,300  Lewis 
guns  was  placed  with  the  Savage  Arms  Corporation  and  on  June 


[126] 


*®e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


2nd  an  order  was  placed  for  2,500  Colt  guns  for  training  purposes. 
The  stock  on  hand  when  war  was  declared  consisted  of  670  Benet- 
Mercie  machine  rifles,  285  Maxim  machine  guns,  Model  1904,  and 
350  Lewis  machine  guns  chambered  to  use  the  British  calibre  .303 
ammunition.  It  is  evident  from  these  facts  that  manufacturing 
facilities  were  extremely  limited  and  that  to  achieve  the  rate  of 
production  of  machine  guns  and  rifles  required  for  the  man-power 
program  of  the  General  Staff  new  plants  had  to  be  provided  and 
tooled  up,  an  operation  that  requires  a  long  time. 

The  policy  of  the  Ordnance  Department  was  to  employ  every 
available  resource  and  to  create  new  resources  as  quickly  as  pos- 
sible. Existent  facilities  for  the  manufacture  of  Lewis  guns  were 
fully  employed  and  new  facilities  were  sought  for  the  manufacture 
of  the  Browning  (heavy  type)  machine  gun  and  the  Browning 
automatic  rifle  which  were  not  only  proven  to  be  excellent  in  de- 
sign but  also  comparatively  easy  to  manufacture  in  quantity  with 
standardization  and  interchangeability  of  parts. 

Surveys  were  made  of  the  facilities  of  various  plants  for  the 
manufacture  of  the  Browning  guns,  the  Government  having  com- 
pensated Colt's,  owners  of  the  Browning  patents,  and  Mr.  J.  M. 
Browning,  the  inventor,  for  this  right.  In  July,  1917,  orders  were 
placed  with  the  Colt's  Patent  Fire  Arms  Manufacturing  Company 
for  ten  thousand  Browning  machine  guns  and  twelve  thousand 
Browning  automatic  rifles;  in  September,  1917,  orders  were  placed 
for  fifteen  thousand  Browning  machine  guns  with  Remington  Arms 
Union  Metallic  Cartridge  Company  of  Bridgeport,  Conn.,  for  5,000 
Browning  Aircraft  guns  with  the  Marlin-Rockwell  Corporation, 
New  Haven,  Conn.,  and  for  20,000  Browning  automatic  rifles,  light 
type,  with  the  Marlin-Rockwell  Corporation.  The  Winchester  Re- 
peating Arms  Co.,  of  New  Haven,  Conn.,  also  began  preliminary 
work  on  the  manufacture  of  the  Browning  automatic  rifle  and  a 
formal  order  for  25,000  of  these  rifles  was  placed  with  that  com- 
pany in  October.  Facilities  of  the  Mayo  Radiator  plant  at  New 
Haven,   the   New   England   Westinghouse   Company's   plant   at 


[127] 


W?  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Springfield,  Mass.,  and  of  the  Hopkins  and  Allen  plant  at  Norwich, 
Conn.,  were  also  pressed  into  service  for  the  manufacture  of  Brown- 
ings as  quickly  as  possible. 

Such  was  the  progress  made  during  the  summer  and  early  fall 
of  1917.  To  provide  for  the  training  of  troops  of  the  National 
Army  then  being  called  into  service,  the  Ordnance  Department 
ordered  shipped  to  each  National  Army  camp  fifty  Colt  guns.  This 
order  was  given  within  a  month  of  the  time  that  the  first  con- 
tingent of  the  National  Army  was  called  into  service.  Within 
another  month  the  Colt  guns  were  supplemented  at  each  of  these 
camps  by  twenty  Lewis  guns  and  30  Chauchat  automatic  rifles  of 
French  manufacture.  At  about  the  same  time,  thirty  Colt  guns, 
thirty  Chauchat  rifles  and  from  fifty  to  seventy  Lewis  guns  were 
issued  to  the  National  Guard  camps.  Thus  did  Ordnance  keep 
step  with  the  demands  for  machine  guns  for  training  purposes. 

The  first  twelve  divisions  of  the  United  States  Army  to  embark 
for  France  were  equipped  with  Hotchkiss  Heavy  machine  guns  and 
Chauchat  automatic  rifles,  purchased  from  the  French,  upon  their 
arrival  in  France.  These  divisions  embarked  prior  to  May,  1918. 
During  May  and  June  of  1918,  Vickers  guns  were  issued  to  the 
eleven  divisions  next  to  embark.  Upon  debarkation  these  divisions 
were  equipped  with  Chauchat  automatic  rifles  of  French  manu- 
facture. Subsequently  all  divisions  were  fully  equipped  with 
Brownings,  machine  guns  and  automatic  rifles.  Part  of  such  equip- 
ment was  issued  to  them  in  this  country  and  the  remainder  upon 
debarkation  in  France. 

Browning  guns,  of  both  types,  went  into  action  against  the 
enemy  on  September  13,  1918,  in  the  hands  of  men  of  the  79th 
Division.  The  following  extracts  from  the  report  of  the  Com- 
manding General  of  that  Division  to  General  Pershing,  show  the 
opinion  of  these  guns  held  by  the  men  who  used  them. 

"All  of  the  14  machine  gun  companies  in  the  79th  Division  but 
one  were  engaged  at  some  time  during  the  operation.  Approx- 
imately 117,000  rounds  of  ammunition  were  fired.    Practically  no 


[128] 


We  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


malfunctions  occurred  which  caused  the  guns  to  go  out  of  action. 
The  guns  operated  under  most  serious  adverse  conditions  of  rain 
and  mud.  They  met  these  conditions  admirably.  The  following 
quoted  reports  of  a  Platoon  commander  will  establish  the  satis- 
factory operation  of  the  heavy  Browning  machine  gun  during  this 
operation : 

"  'During  the  five  days  that  my  four  guns  were  in  action,  they 
fired  approximately  12,000  rounds  of  ammunition.  They  had  very 
rough  handling  due  to  the  fact  that  the  infantry  made  constant 
halts,  causing  the  guns  to  be  placed  in  the  mud.  The  condition  of 
the  ground  on  these  five  days  was  very  muddy  and  considerable 
grit  got  into  the  working  parts  of  the  guns.  Guns  became  rusty  on 
the  outside,  due  to  the  rain  and  wet  weather,  but  in  every  instance, 
when  the  guns  were  called  upon  to  fire,  they  fired  perfectly.  Dur- 
ing all  this  time  I  had  only  one  stoppage,  and  this  was  due  to  a 
broken  ejector. 

"  'The  condition  of  the  belts,  in  every  instance,  was  muddy  and 
wet.  Belts  that  were  shrunk  were  fed  into  the  guns,  making  it  very 
hard  for  the  extractor  to  function.  However  there  was  not  one 
instance  where  the  gun  failed  to  operate  due  to  muddy  and  wet 
belts/  " 

"The  rifle  proved  a  good  weapon  but  only  partially  satisfactory 
in  this  operation  on  account  of  the  very  adverse  conditions  of  rain 
and  weather.  Many  rifles  became  useless  because  of  clogging  with 
mud,  and  as  the  operation  developed  the  men  became  so  wet  and 
their  clothing  and  equipment  so  soaked  that  there  were  no  dry  rags 
toward  the  end  of  the  fighting,  and  no  oil  with  which  to  keep  the 
mechanism  of  the  rifle  in  proper  condition. 

"On  the  whole,  the  Browning  automatic  rifle  functioned  well 
without  jam  or  stoppage  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  mud  or  dirt  had  ac- 
cumulated on  the  working  parts.  Some  automatic  rifles  became 
useless  with  clogging  of  mud.  This  was  easily  corrected  when  they 
were  cleaned  and  oiled." 

There  is  no  "color"  certainly  in  this  report  of  the  men  who  were 


[129] 


We  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


depending  upon  these  weapons  for  their  lives.  This  was  the  first 
time  the  Browning  guns  were  in  action  and  the  conditions  were 
extremely  severe.  No  one  at  all  familiar  with  the  use  of  automatic 
weapons  will  fail  to  appreciate  the  value  of  this  testimonial,  for 
malfunction  and  stoppage  with  these  stream  fire  weapons  is  com- 
mon even  under  favorable  conditions. 

Of  machine  guns  and  automatic  rifles,  the  United  States  pro- 
duced during  the  nineteen  months  of  her  participation  in  the  war 
a  total  of  206,752  as  compared  with  181,404  produced  by  England 
and  229,238  produced  by  France.  England  and  France  had  been 
at  war  three  years.  During  these  nineteen  months  they  were  at 
maximum  production.  The  United  States,  however,  had  to  spend 
many  of  these  precious  months  building  factories  and  equipping 
others.  A  fairer  basis  of  comparison  is  the  rate  of  production  for 
the  months  just  prior  to  the  signing  of  the  armistice.  The  British 
rate  of  production  was  10,947  guns,  the  French  12,122  and  the 
American  27,270.  Not  only  did  America  provide  for  her  own  needs, 
but  had  the  war  continued  through  the  Spring  of  1919,  she  would 
have  provided  large  quantities  of  these  guns  for  her  allies. 

PISTOLS  AND  REVOLVERS 
The  pistol  presented  one  of  the  greatest  problems  in  Small 
Arms  production;  possibly  because  of  the  very  fact  that  at  first  it 
seemed  the  simplest.  We  had  one  of  the  best  military  pistols  in  the 
world,  the  outcome  of  the  exhaustive  tests  of  1904  when  a  dozen 
models  of  varying  calibers  and  types  were  tried  out  on  both  the 
human  body  and  living  flesh  to  determine  their  man-stopping 
power,  the  nature  of  the  wounds  inflicted  and  their  general  all- 
round  efficiency.  The  development  of  the  U.  S.  .45  was  the  result. 
It  is  interesting  to  note  that  in  those  trials,  the  two  models  of  the 
famous  German  Luger  proved  the  least  destructive,  which  may  ac- 
count for  the  facts  that  the  Germans  with  their  26  types  of  pistols 
ranging  from  .22  to  .45  in  caliber  and  including  the  infamous 
"murder"  and  "camerad"  pistols,  were  reported  to  turn  tail  quicker 


[130] 


We  Story"  §f  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


before  the  Yankee  pistol  than  any  other  weapon,  that  the  American 
pistol  shooters  were  feared  no  less  than  the  mysterious  "Ladies 
from  Hell,"  and  that  military  surgeons  reported  that  pistol  wounds 
were  rare  among  the  Allied  troops. 

The  Colts  Patent  Fire  Arms  Company  was  tooled  up  for  a 
large  production  of  this  weapon  and  it  was  believed  by  both  the 
plant  and  Ordnance  Department  officials  that  they  would  be  able 
to  take  care  of  the  entire  program.  That  this  prediction  later 
proved  erroneous  is  not  surprising,  nor  can  blame  be  laid  on  either 
the  company  or  the  Ordnance  Department.  With  no  precedent, 
neither  could  foresee  and  count  on  the  magnitude  of  the  labor  situa- 
tion about  to  confront  the  country,  the  scarcity  of  steel,  the 
tremendous  increase  in  requirements  in  the  Spring  of  1918,  the 
crippling  lack  of  expert  tool-makers,  the  railway  congestion,  and 
the  score  of  other  limiting  factors  which  played  so  great  a  part  in 
the  pistol  program. 

When  it  became  apparent  in  December  1917  that  the  Colt  plant 
could  not  possibly  meet  requirements,  contracts  were  placed  with 
the  Remington  Arms  and  that  company  immediately  started  to 
create  facilities.  But  tooling  up  a  plant  for  quantity  production  is 
no  sinecure.  A  minimum  of  four  months  is  required  before  a  pistol 
can  be  started ;  two  more  are  necessary  for  any  production ;  securing 
that  most  elusive  of  all  artisans,  the  expert  tool-maker,  has  proved 
far  more  elusive  than  gunning  for  the  Hun ;  the  necessity  for  mak- 
ing new  drawings  and  effecting  absolute  inter  changeability  in  the 
product  of  the  two  plants;  the  nicety  of  pistol  manufacture  itself, 
representing  619  separate  operations  with  exceedingly  close  toler- 
ances; the  securing  of  the  necessary  eight  grades  of  material  and 
the  building  of  the  1,264  machines  for  the  Remington  plant,  pre- 
sented a  problem  which  made  the  opening  production  in  August 
1918  an  unusually  quick  piece  of  work. 

By  that  time  the  situation  had  become  very  serious  and  con- 
tracts to  the  extent  of  2,550,000  pistols  were  placed  with  eight  com- 
mercial firms  such  as  the  Burroughs  Adding  Machine  Company, 


[131] 


*®e  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


the  Lanston  Monotype  Company  and  other  firms  whose  peace- 
time products  required  machinery  which  might  be  converted  to 
manufacture  pistols.  None  of  these,  however,  got  into  production 
up  to  the  time  of  the  Armistice. 

At  that  time,  cumulative  production  totaled  approximately 
450,000.  The  practically  negligible  production  of  1917  had  been 
built  up  to  65,000  monthly,  and  had  the  War  continued  until  the 
new  contracts  were  under  way,  the  Spring  of  1919  would  have  seen 
a  monthly  output  of  650,000  pistols. 

That  pistol  production  could  not  at  once  meet  the  tremendous 
immediate  requirements  was  inevitable  and  it  was  decided  to  use 
the  caliber  .45  revolver  as  a  substitute  until  such  time  as  pistol 
production  should  justify  its  abandonment. 

The  revolver  in  question  had  several  drawbacks;  it  was  two 
inches  longer  than  the  pistol,  harder  to  manipulate,  capable  of  only 
about  1/3  the  speed  in  shooting  and  it  contained  only  6  instead  of 
7  cartridges.  On  the  other  hand,  it  was  capable  of  using  the  same 
ammunition  as  the  pistol ;  there  were  two  plants,  Colts  and  Smith 
&  Wesson,  sufficiently  tooled  up  to  begin  almost  immediate  pro- 
duction, and  it  was  the  best  available  substitute. 

Its  production  started  in  October,  1917,  and  remained  through- 
out the  summer  of  1918  at  a  fairly  even  average  of  25,000  monthly, 
no  attempt  at  increase  being  made,  as  this  would  have  entailed  a 
corresponding  decrease  in  pistol  production. 

Only  about  268,000  were  produced  to  November  11,  1918,  the 
October  production  having  reached  33,400,  a  daily  output  of  1,200, 
double  that  of  January,  1918. 

SMALL  ARMS  AMMUNITION 

The  story  of  cartridge  production  during  the  War  is  one  of  the 
most  spectacular  in  the  history  of  industry.  Early  in  1917,  existing 
facilities  could  not  produce  more  than  a  small  fraction  of  require- 
ments.   Frankford  Arsenal,  the  chief  source  of  manufacture,  had  a 


[132] 


The  best  military  pistol  in  the  world,  the  U.  S.  45. 
During  the  trials  when  this  pistol  was  made  the 
standard  of  the  United  States  Army,  the  two 
models  of  the  famous  German  Luger  proved  the 
least  destructive,  which  may  account  for  the  fact 
that  the  Germans,  with  their  26  types  of  pistols 
and  including  the  famous  "murder"  and 
"camerad"  pistols,  were  reported  to  turn  tail 
before  the  Yankee  pistol  quicker  than  before  any 
other  weapon.  At  the  time  of  the  armistice  the 
United  States  was  producing  more  small  arms 
ammunition  of  the  service  type  than  France  and 
England  combined.  A  single  plant,  the  Reming- 
ton Arms  U  M  C  Company,  was  turning  out 
6,000,000  rounds  daily,  double  the  quantity  of  the 
largest  order  they  had  ever  received  prior  to  the 
war.  This  plant's  first  year's  output  of  1,000,- 
000,000  rounds  equaled  35  years  of  peace-time 
manufacture.

a  cross-section  view  of  the  head  of  a  seventy-five 
millimeter  shell.  The  shell  is  composed  of 
seventy-three  component  parts  made  with  all  the 
precision  and  delicacy  of  a  watch.  The  layman, 
observing  an  ammunition  dump  with  these  shells 
stacked  in  thousands,  has  no  appreciation  of  the 
difficulties  of  design  and  manufacture  encountered 
in  the  production  of  the  first  type  shell  and 
until  quantity  production  is  achieved.  This  in- 
tricacy of  design  is  what  makes  possible  the 
timing  of  the  explosion  and  the  perfect  control 
of  the  force  of  the  shell.  A  particular  shell  is 
developed  for  each  tactical  requirement;  shrapnel, 
high  explosive  or  gas.  Shrapnel  would  be  em- 
ployed against  personnel,  high  explosive  for 
demolition  purposes,  and  gas  to  break  down  the 
morale  of  an  enemy  force  preparatory  to  an  ad- 
vance. 


[137]

capacity  of  100,000,000  yearly.     Requirements  called  for  2,756,- 
608,000  to  July  1,  1918. 

The  difficulties  attendant  upon  the  production  of  the  cal.  30  ser- 
vice cartridge  were  numerous.  Heretofore,  our  service  ammuni- 
tion had  been  used  in  one  type  of  rifle  and  two  machine  guns.  Ow- 
ing to  the  impossibility  of  having  the  complication  resulting  from 
a  variety  of  small  arms  ammunition,  it  now  became  necessary  to  de- 
velop a  cartridge  which  would  function  satisfactorily  in  two  rifles 
and  seven  machine  guns,  each  having  firing-pins  of  differing  shapes, 
sizes  and  methods  of  functioning,  and  each  giving  a  different  pres- 
sure on  the  primer.  To  develop  a  cartridge  adapted  to  the 
eccentricities  of  any  one  of  these  guns  would  have  been  a  compar- 
atively simple  matter,  although  the  logical  method  is  to  fit  the  gun 
to  the  cartridge.  To  develop  one  suited  to  all  nine,  one  which 
was  adapted  equally  well  to  service  on  land  and  in  the  air,  which 
must  therefore  be  absolutely  free  from  jamming  and  hang-fire  and 
which  could  be  produced  in  billions  by  a  dozen  different  manu- 
facturers was  a  task  challenging  the  keenest  faculties  of  ammuni- 
tion experts.  To  devise  a  perfect  cartridge  for  peace-time  manu- 
facture is  one  thing ;  to  develop  one  which  can  be  made  at  the  rate 
of  1 1,000,000  per  day  is  another. 

The  cartridge  itself  is  one  of  the  most  difficult  in  the  word  to 
make,  many  of  its  tolerances  being  less  than  a  thousandth  of  an 
inch.  There  are  88  operations  aside  from  gauging  and  inspection 
on  each  cartridge. 

Early  in  the  fall  of  1917,  a  conference  of  all  the  small  arms 
ammunition  manufacturers  in  the  country  was  called  to  devise  a 
means  of  creating  new  facilities  and  to  discuss  standardization. 
The  problem  of  facilities  was  settled  by  an  agreement  on  the  part 
of  the  manufacturers  to  expand  as  much  as  possible,  thus  provid- 
ing for  an  extra  billion  rounds  per  year.  Existing  facilities,  how- 
ever, which  were  for  the  cal.  303  British  cartridge  of  the  rimmed 
type,  had  to  be  modified  to  produce  the  U.  S.  ammunition,  which 
was  very  different.    This  required  six  months  before  quantity  pro-

duction  could  start.  The  brass  and  cupro-nickel  shortage,  the 
transportation  congestion,  the  labor  difficulties  naturally  resultant 
from  high  competition,  lack  of  wage  standardization,  and  the  lack 
of  a  type  of  labor  for  which  the  peace-time  demand  is  practically 
negligible — all  operated  to  delay  manufacture. 

Forty  thousand  guage  makers  were  needed  at  once.  There 
were  4,000  in  the  nation.  The  Allies-  claimed  it  would  take  two 
years  to  train  our  tool-makers;  we  did  it  in  two  months.  Jig- 
makers,  guage-makers,  inspectors,  skilled  mechanics  of  every  type, 
had  to  be  procured  and  trained  almost  overnight. 

And  the  result  was  that  at  the  time  of  the  Armistice  we  were 
producing  more  ammunition  of  the  service  type  alone  than  France 
and  England  combined.  A  single  plant,  the  Remington  Arms 
UMC  Co.,  was  turning  out  6,000,000  rounds  daily,  double  the 
quantity  of  the  largest  order  they  had  ever  received  prior  to  the 
War.  This  plant's  first  year's  output  of  1,000,000,000  rounds 
equalled  35  years  of  peace-time  manufacture.  The  material  con- 
sumed daily  at  this  plant  for  its  cartridge  production  included  179 
tons  of  brass,  more  than  19  tons  of  powder,  42*/2  tons  of  lead  and 
21  tons  of  cupro-nickel ! 

A  total  of  2,586,000,000  rounds  of  the  Service  M-1906  ammuni- 
tion was  produced  up  to  the  signing  of  the  Armistice. 

Then  there  was  the  special  ammunition.  Armor-piercing  car- 
tridges, whose  function  it  was  to  penetrate  armored  trucks,  tanks 
and  planes,  against  which  service  ammunition  was  ineffectual,  were 
developed  and  produced  to  the  extent  of  nearly  5,000,000  rounds. 

Incendiary  cartridges  to  inflame  the  gases  or  oil  escaping  from 
the  holes  thus  made  were  sent  after  the  armor-piercing  bullets 
from  aircraft  machine  guns  shooting  at  the  rate  of  from  500  to 
1,200  rounds  per  minute.  More  than  14,000,000  of  these  were  pro- 
duced. 

About  25,000,000  tracer  cartridges  were  manufactured.  These 
blaze  a  fire  trail  to  show  the  trajectory  or  path  of  flight  of  the  other 
cartridges  and  thus  serve  as  a  guide  to  the  aim.

More  than  323.000,000  pistol  ball  cartridges,  caliber  .45,  were 
made.  In  short,  nearly  3%  billion  rounds  of  ammunition  were 
made  by  American  manufacturers  between  April,  1917,  and 
November,  1918! 

NITRATES 

As  S.  Nauchoff  has  pointed  out,  the  saying  of  Liebig,  "No 
phosphorous,  no  mind"  might  well  be  parodied  with  "No  nitrogen, 
no  war."  Practically  all  military  explosives,  whether  used  as  pro- 
pellants  or  bursting  charges,  are  wholly  dependent  upon  it  and  in 
this  war  more  than  in  any  other,  explosives  have  played  the  lead- 
ing role.  Approximately  two  pounds  of  sodium  nitrate  are  required 
for  each  pound  of  explosive. 

Prior  to  our  entry  into  the  war,  our  chief  source  of  supply  lay 
in  the  saltpeter  beds  of  Chile,  the  yearly  import  amounting  to 
about  600,000  tons,  of  which  fifty  per  cent  was  used  in  the  manu- 
facture of  explosives  and  an  additional  twenty-five  per  cent  in  the 
making  of  nitric  acid.  With  the  multifold  requirements  for  ex- 
plosives in  1917,  the  supply  was  inadequate,  even  without  tak- 
ing into  consideration  the  shortage  in  world  tonnage  and  the  sub- 
marine menace.    Import  from  Chile  was  not  to  be  relied  upon. 

As  far  back  as  1915,  the  seriousness  of  the  situation  was  evident 
and  the  Chief  of  Ordnance  said  in  his  annual  report  of  that  year: 
"I  do  not  know  of  any  article  of  this  class  which  at  the  present  time 
should  cause  more  concern  with  reference  to  the  war-time  supply 
than  nitric  acid."  Germany  had  prepared  for  it  some  years  before 
her  declaration  of  war  with  cold-blooded  calculation  and  had  de- 
veloped the  Haber  process  to  such  an  extent  as  to  be  wholly  inde- 
pendent of  the  Chilean  sources  when  England  closed  the  seas. 

In  1916,  an  appropriation  of  $20,000,000  was  made  for  experi- 
ments and  investigation  as  to  the  best  and  most  economical  pro- 
cesses and  for  the  construction  of  an  experimental  plant. 

At  the  time  of  our  entry  into  the  War,  no  definite  program  had 
yet  been  approved,  but  activities  became  enormously  increased. 
Ordinarily,  this  industry  is  one  requiring  years  for  development 


[140]

and  the  problem  facing  the  Ordnance  Department  was  a  serious 
one. 

Five  processes  aside  from  the  coke-oven  method  were  in  ex- 
istence ;  the  Arc ;  the  Nitride ;  the  Cyanide ;  the  Synthetic  Ammonia, 
an  improvement  on  the  German  Haber  system,  and  the  Cyanamid. 
The  first  two  were  impracticable  and  were  never  employed.  A 
plant  at  Saltville,  Va.,  to  produce  ten  tons  daily  by  the  sodium 
Cyanide  process  was  constructed  in  the  fall  of  1917  and  was 
practically  completed  at  the  time  of  the  armistice. 

Of  the  large  government  plants,  Plant  No.  1  used  the  Synthetic 
Ammonia  process.  It  was  situated  at  Sheffield,  a  small  town  in 
the  northwestern  part  of  Alabama  on  the  Tennessee  River.  Its 
capacity  was  60,000  pounds  of  ammonia  daily. 

In  order  to  supplement  the  capacity  available  at  Plant  No.  1, 
and  to  insure  the  production  of  nitrates  in  proportion  to  the  ever 
increasing  demand,  Plant  No.  2,  with  a  capacity  of  110,000  tons  per 
year,  was  started  in  December,  1918,  near  the  famous  Mussel  Shoals 
of  the  river.  On  January  1,  1918,  there  existed  a  few  preliminary 
free-hand  sketches  of  the  design  of  the  plant;  none  of  the  equip- 
ment of  the  powerhouse  had  yet  been  purchased.  On  November 
25th,  less  than  eleven  months  later,  a  vast  plant  was  manu- 
facturing ammonium  nitrate  in  a  town  with  housing  facilities, 
lighting,  sewers,  paved  streets,  water  supply,  sanitation,  hospitals, 
dispensaries,  a  corps  of  physicians,  dentists  and  nurses,  stores, 
churches,  schools  and  recreation  centers  for  more  than  20,000  em- 
ployes. And  this  is  but  one  of  many  similar  projects  entailing  an 
incomprehensible  amount  of  work  before  even  the  first  step  in  the 
actual  work  in  hand  can  be  started. 

The  construction  of  two  more  Army  plants,  in  addition  to  the 
Navy  Plant  at  Indian  Head,  Md.,  was  necessitated  by  the  alarming 
submarine  interference  and  the  low  quantity  of  Chilean  nitrates  on 
hand  during  the  winter  of  1917-1918.  One  of  these  was  situated  at 
Toledo,  Ohio,  and  the  other  at  Ancor,  Ohio,  near  Cincinnati.  Their 
production  was  to  be  equal  to  that  of  Plant  No.  2.  Both  of  these 
were  well  under  way  at  the  time  of  the  signing  of  the  Armistice.

The  Story  of  Ordnance  With  the  A.  E.  F.  as  Published 

in  the  Stars  and  Stripes,  Official  Organ 

of  the  A.  E.  F. 

Out  of  the  babel  of  tongues  heard  on  the  battlefields  of  the  late 
war  there  was  a  language  known  and  respecte'd  of  all  men,  a  lan- 
guage that  needed  no  interpreter,  a  language  in  which  friend  and 
enemy  alike  held  parley  day  and  night  across  No  Man's  Land — the 
language  of  the  guns. 

History  will  record  that  it  was  in  this  language  that  America 
gave  her  answer  to  the  Imperial  German  Government — gave  it 
in  the  form  of  175,000  tons  of  hot  steel  and  high  explosives  and  one 
billion  rounds  of  small  arms  amunition. 

And  there  was  never  such  a  talking  machine  as  the  American 
Army.  "We  shot  away  stuff  so  fast  that  our  Allies  thought  we 
were  crazy,"  says  a  report  of  last  month's  campaign.  "The  fight- 
ing energy  of  our  troops  at  the  front,"  says  another  military  leader, 
"upset  every  calculation." 

It  fell  to  the  Ordnance  Department  of  the  A.  E.  F.  to  keep  this 
machine  going.  This  meant  the  procurement,  storage,  distribu- 
tion, maintenance  and  repair  of  32,000  different  classes  of  articles 
ranging  all  the  way  from  the  great  lumbering  caterpillar  tank  to 
the  well-known  mess-kit,  and  including  all  offensive  and  defensive 
arms  and  ammunition,  from  the  great  guns  and  howitzers,  hurling 
shells  of  nearly  a  ton  in  weight,  down  to  the  small  but  deadly  trench 
or  knuckle  knife. 

It  called  for  not  only  machine  guns,  automatic  rifles  and  small 
arms,  but  tanks,  tractors,  trailers  and  mobile  repair  shops.    New

conditions  of  warfare  added  a  considerable  list  of  unfamiliar 
Ordnance  devices,  such  as  drop  bombs,  incendiary  darts,  grenades 
and  pyrotechnics. 

To  sum  up  best  the  achievements  of  the  Ordnance  Department 
is  to  say  that  it  has  met  the  demands  thus  made  upon  it,  though 
they  were  multiplied  by  hugely  increased  schedules  of  troops  sail- 
ing to  France,  by  greatly  accelerated  programs  of  military  of- 
fensives, and  by  expenditures  of  ammunition  by  the  American 
forces  enormously  exceeding  the  estimates  based  upon  French  and 
British  experience. 

From  the  beginning  the  policy  of  the  Department  was  based  on 
large  and  liberal  lines.  "There  are  troops  in  France  and  we  must 
give  them  what  they  want.  If  they  ask  for  elephants,  give  them 
elephants,"  was  the  dictum  passed  along,  and  it  was  faithfully 
adhered  to. 

On  November  11th,  1918,  the  Ordnance  Department  had 
actually  placed  on  the  American  lines  3,500  cannon  of  all  calibres, 
which,  during  periods  of  great  artillery  activity,  were  actually 
handing  Jerry  6,000  tons  of  hot  steel  every  24  hours.  These  guns 
took  7,000,000  shots  at  the  enemy. 

There  were  also  on  that  day  2,000  trench  mortars  helping  to 
make  things  miserable  for  the  retreating  enemy  and  2,000,000  hand 
grenades  ready  to  throw.  And  more  than  100,000  machine  guns 
and  automatic  rifles  re-enforced  the  fire  of  the  million  service  rifles, 
the  doughboys  were  peppering  the  Boche  with  on  that  eventful 
day. 

Nor  was  this  all.  There  was  more  and  a  plenty  where  this  came 
from.  Cleverly  tucked  away  and  camouflaged  from  front  lines 
back  to  base  ports  there  were  waiting  more  than  4,500,000  rounds 
of  shrapnel  and  high  explosive  shells  and  640,000,000  rounds  of 
small  arms  and  machine  gun  ammunition. 

And  perhaps  the  German  high  command  thought  it  impossible 
for  the  Americans  to  bring  up  artillery,  keeping  pace  with  the 
rapidly  advancing  doughboys.     The  Ordnance  Department  pro- 


[143] 


We  Story*  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


vided  means  to  overcome  all  such  obstacles  as  shell-torn  roads  and 
crater-filled  fields  by  hooking  tractors  to  the  guns  and  hauling 
them  to  places  where  horses  could  not  have  gone  except  perhaps 
by  long,  tedious  days  and  nights  of  effort.  Seven  thousand  Ord- 
nance tractors  and  artillery  repair  and  supply  trucks  were  put  into 
action  and  rendered  invaluable  service. 

By  motorizing  the  wicked  75's  and  the  155-mm.  howitzers,  our 
artillery  was  able  to  give  effective  assistance  to  the  driving  In- 
fantry at  all  times.  The  14-inch  naval  guns,  railroaded  into  posi- 
tions of  great  strategic  value,  especially  during  the  St.  Mihiel  and 
Argonne  drives,  threw  the  enemy's  lines  into  confusion  and  con- 
sternation for  miles  behind  his  retreating  columns.  Although  the 
doughboys  wittily  complained  that  "all  these  guns  did  was  to  stir 
up  trouble  and  then  run  away,"  with  all  the  facts  now  in  hand  it  is 
clear  that  all  these  guns  played  a  tremendous  part  in  hastening  the 
enemy  retreat,  disordering  his  communications  and  destroying  his 
morale. 

The  armored  tank  was  perhaps  one  of  the  greatest  triumphs  of 
the  war,  and  our  Ordnance  Department  put  300  of  these  in  the  big 
offensives. 

Ordnance  experts  regard  as  the  outstanding  accomplishments 
of  this  department  of  the  A.  E.  F.  the  motorization  of  our  artillery, 
the  system  of  mobile  repair  shops  maintained  with  the  armies,  and 
the  arming  of  all  airplanes  for  American  squadrons. 

The  importance  of  keeping  the  guns  at  the  front  in  first-class 
fighting  trim  can  readily  be  realized.  The  motorized  shops  for 
that  purpose  that  kept  in  the  wake  of  the  armies  and  rendered  first 
aid  to  all  artillery  and  arms  were  a  distinctive  American  contribu- 
tion to  the  war.  There  were  at  the  time  of  the  armistice  a  number 
of  these  heavy  mobile  repair  shop  organizations  and  25  mobile  ord- 
nance repair  shops  operating  with  the  armies.  They  could  doctor 
up  any  kind  of  a  gun  and  get  it  back  in  commission  unless  it  needed 
major  repairs. 

The  2nd  Mobile  Ordnance  Repair  Shop  on  the  Soissons  front 


[144] 


To  send  this  gun  back  to  the  firing  line  was  a 
part  of  the  job  of  Ordnance  with  the  A.  E.  F. 
To  make  repairs  to  guns  and  Ordnance  equipment 
at  organization  and  training  centers  or  instruc- 
tion camps,  more  than  twenty-five  repair  shops 
were  equipped  and  maintained  in  the  S.  O.  S. 
The  greatest  of  these,  at  Mehun,  was  itself  de- 
signed to  handle  repairs  to  all  artillery  and  Ord- 
nance equipment  for  an  Army  of  2,000,000  men. 
It  covered  50  acres  of  ground,  was  manned  by 
6,000  technically  trained  soldiers,  and  could  re- 
make anything  from  a  tank  or  a  piece  of  heavy 
artillery  to  a  mess-kit.  It  was  designed  for  a 
capacity  of  relining  1,245  guns,  repairing  2,000 
Ordnance  gun  vehicles  and  3,000  Ordnance  motor 
vehicles  and  overhauling  150,000  rifles,  5,000  pis- 
tols and  20,000  machine  guns  a  month.

put  into  action  against  the  retreating  Germans  28  pieces  of  their 
own  artillery,  ranging  from  77-mm.  to  210-mm.  guns.  The  Mobile 
Ordnance  Repair  Shop  attached  to  the  35th  Division  established  the 
record  of  having  no  piece  of  artillery  out  of  action  over  five  minutes 
during  the  Argonne  drive. 

These  repair  shops  took  care  of  all  Ordnance  materiel,  and  many 
other  things  besides,  such  as  water  carts,  rolling  kitchens,  bicycles, 
typewriters,  shower  baths,  watches,  meat  grinders,  steam  rollers, 
stone  crushers,  trench  pumps,  captured  German  baths  and  delous- 
ing  plants.  They  also  assisted  in  the  salvage  of  Ordnance  equip- 
ment. 

It  is  said  that  some  chronicler  of  Ordnance  activities,  seeking 
local  color,  was  invited  to  visit  one  of  these  mobile  repair  shops 
at  work.  As  he  arrived  a  hugh  motor  truck,  which  had  been 
brought  in  helpless,  was  snorting  away,  restored  to  full  vigor.  A 
Y.  M.  C.  A.  secretary  was  waiting  with  a  Victrola  to  be  fixed.  In 
a  few  minutes  it  went  away  singing.  Then  a  heavy  tractor  lum- 
bered in,  towing  a  great  155-mm.  G.  P.  F.  gun  which  had  been  put 
out  of  action.    It  was  repaired  and  returned  to  the  lines. 

As  it  went  away  a  general's  car  drove  up  and  the  general  him- 
self got  out.  "Captain,"  he  said,  "I  have  lost  a  little  screw  out  of 
my  eyeglass  and  I  am  helpless  without  them.  Is  there  any  way  you 
can  fix  them?"  There  was.  "That  will  do,"  said  the  historian,  clos- 
ing his  note  book,  "I  have  local  color  enough  for  one  day." 

Some  of  the  notable  work  of  the  Ordnance  Department  was 
done  in  arming  planes  for  the  American  front.  The  aircraft  arma- 
ment shops  were  at  Orly  and  Romarantin,  the  two  airplane  as- 
sembly plants  of  the  A.  E.  F.  The  adaptation  of  American  arma- 
ment to  European  planes  was  a  knotty  problem  consummately 
handled.  The  Vickers,  Lewis,  and  Marlin  machine  guns  with  which 
our  planes  were  armed  proved  highly  satisfactory  in  combat. 

The  supply  of  aircraft  armament,  ammunition  and  drop  bombs 
at  all  times  met  the  demand,  and,  to  quote  the  verdict  of  experts, 
was  of  "proven  efficiency  against  the  enemy." 


[148] 


*®e  Story"  gf  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


Not  only  had  our  Ordnance  Department  at  the  time  of  the 
armistice  matched  the  armored  seat  provided  by  Germany  for  the 
protection  of  her  aviators,  but  steps  had  been  taken  to  put  on  the 
front  an  invincible  armada  of  all-armored  planes.  None  of  these 
ironclads  of  the  air  had  actually  taken  the  field,  but  the  project  had 
long  passed  the  experimental  stage.  The  Ordnance  Department, 
indeed,  before  the  war  ended,  had  equipped  the  forces  at  the  front 
with  veritable  flying  fortresses,  fitted  with  eight  guns  instead  of  two 
or  four.  Four  of  these  guns  projected  through  the  floor  of  the 
plane,  two  fore  and  two  aft. 

Another  contribution  of  our  Ordnance  to  airplane  warfare  was 
a  parachute  dropping  device,  with  a  14-foot  spread,  for  dropping 
food,  supplies  and  ammunition  to  troops  in  the  trenches.  This  de- 
vice was  completely  successful  and  was  actually  employed  on  a 
large  scale. 

The  Ordnance  Department  had  well  in  hand  the  production  of 
a  standard  American  parachute  for  the  use  of  aviators  in  jumping 
from  their  planes,  but  none  was  ever  used  by  us  at  the  front.  The 
Germans  actually  used  the  parachutes  successfully  during  the  last 
few  weeks  of  the  war. 

There  should  also  be  mentioned  the  American  bomb  dropper, 
furnished  our  planes,  by  which  our  aviators  could  take  any  kind  of 
an  Allied  bomb  on  their  bombing  expeditions.  The  American 
Wimpers  and  the  Franco- American  Michelim  bomb  site  proved  100 
per  cent  efficient  in  guiding  bombs  to  their  objective. 

In  addition  to  its  achievements  in  the  field  another  great  prob- 
lem that  confronted  the  Ordnance  Department  of  the  A.  E.  F.  was 
storage  and  heavy  repair  in  the  S.  O.  S. 

The  base  section  of  the  A.  E.  F.  was  the  great  reservoir  of  Ord- 
nance materiel  and  facilities  into  which  the  initial  Ordnance  sup- 
plies were  poured.  The  intermediate  section  was  the  regulating 
mechanism  taking  up  fluctuations  of  supply  and  demand.  The  ad- 
vance section  was  the  sensitive  system  in  direct  touch  with  the 
Army  and  responsive  to  its  needs  from  day  to  day.    For  the  pur- 


[149] 


W?  Story"  if  Ordnance  in  the  World  War 


pose  of  maintenance  and  reserves,  it  was  planned  to  keep  45  days' 
supply  in  the  base  section,  30  days'  in  the  intermediate  and  15  days' 
supply  in  the  advance  section.  This  idea  was  never  fully  realized, 
but  it  was  well  approached  in  the  summer  of  1918. 

To  effect  the  distribution  of  Ordnance  materiel,  it  was  necessary 
to  stretch  multiple  chains  of  general  and  ammunition  storage 
depots  across  France  from  the  base  ports  to  the  front  lines.  Thus, 
for  example,  at  the  coast  were  the  great  general  storage  depots  of 
St.  Sulpice  and  Montoir ;  in  the  intermediate  area,  Gievres  with  its 
acres  of  buildings;  in  the  advance  zone,  Is-sur-Tille,  which  long 
bore  the  brunt  of  the  supply  service — all  of  them  handling  hun- 
dreds of  cars  a  day. 

The  ammunition  storage  projects  alone  of  the  A.  E.  F.  covered 
enough  of  France  to  make  a  good  sized  county  in  New  England. 

The  depot  at  St.  Loubes  was  two  miles  long  and  nearly  two  miles 
wide.  The  ammunition  storage  project  at  Donges  extended  along 
two  sides  of  a  triangle  for  nearly  four  miles.  Foecy  deserves  a 
place  on  the  map  of  the  A.  E.  F. ;  here  thousands  of  tons  of  French, 
British  and  American  ammunition  were  received  and  stored,  re- 
classified and  sent  to  the  front. 

As  many  as  1,500  ten-ton  cars  of  guns  and  ammunition  were 
sent  out  from  this  center  in  a  day,  the  storage  project  employing 
1,000  men.  Jonchory,  with  its  spider-web  system  of  tracks  and  its 
warehouses  cleverly  hidden  and  naturally  camouflaged  by  the  trees, 
housed  tens  of  thousands  of  tons  of  shells,  grenades  and  bombs, 
and  during  active  offensives  handled  300  cars  a  day  in  and  out. 

To  make  repairs  to  guns  and  Ordnance  equipment  at  organiza- 
tion and  training  centers  or  instruction  camps,  more  than  25  repair 
shops  were  equipped  and  maintained  in  the  S.  O.  S.  The  greatest 
of  these,  at  Mehun,  was  itself  so  designed  as  to  handle  repairs  to 
all  artillery  and  Ordnance  equipment  for  an  army  of  2,000,000  men. 
It  covered  50  acres  of  ground,  was  manned  by  6,000  technically 
trained  soldiers,  and  could  remake  anything  from  a  tank  or  a  piece 
of  heavy  artillery  to  a  mess-kit.    It  was  designed  for  a  capacity  of

3,000  Ordnance  motor  vehicles  and  overhauling  150,000  rifles,  5,000 
pistols  and  20,000  machine  guns  per  month. 

Whether  in  depot,  shop  or  ammunition  dump,  the  work  of  the 
Ordnance  Department  required  individual  fitness  and  special  train- 
ing. To  supply  the  latter,  the  department  organized  and  operated 
six  great  schools — St.  Aignan,  lor  office  work  and  care  of  Ordnance 
equipment;  Foecy,  Jouchery  and  Bourges,  for  ammunition;  Is-sur 
Tille,  for  artillery,  small  arms  and  Ordnance  supply  and  shop  work, 
and  St.  Jean  de  Monts,  for  the  aerial  armament  training  which  con- 
tributed to  the  brilliant  results  already  spoken  of.  The  alumni  of 
these  schools  numbered  some  5,000  to  which  the  graduates  of  many 
smaller  centers  of  instruction  added  a  considerable  number. 

The  work  of  the  Ordnance  Department  in  the  A.  E.  F.  was 
neither  a  small  nor  an  easy  job.  Some  idea  of  its  extent  can  be 
estimated  from  the  fact  that  it  handled  more  than  500,000  tons  of 
materiel  and  spent  more  than  $50,000,000  and  made  every  ton  and 
every  dollar  count. 

To  their  credit  it  should  be  said,  in  conclusion,  that  this  pro- 
gram was  carried  through  by  a  little  band  of  1,803  officers  and 
12,205  enlisted  men,  whose  work  was  as  hard  as  any  in  the  Army 
and  as  hazardous,  even  if  in  the  S.  O.  S.  According  to  the  schedules 
of  requirements  the  Ordnance  force  of  the  A.  E.  F.  should  have 
been  2,145  officers  and  35,330  enlisted  men,  while  the  program  for 
July  1,  1919  called  for  3,454  officers  and  70,550  enlisted  men. 

The  history  of  our  Ordnance  is  the  history  of  success  in  a  race 
between  handicap  and  American  brains  and  energy,  and  therefore 
one  in  which  we  can  all  take  pride.
